PIN		DIRECTION			SIGNAL DEFINITION
1	Reference		FG (Frame Ground)
2	To Host		TD (Transmit Data) - Data from the printer to the host computer. Sends X-On/X-Off characters
			or status data (bi-directional protocols).
3	To Printer		RD (Receive Data) - Data to the printer from the host computer.
4	To Host		RTS (Request to Send) - Used with Ready/Busy flow control to indicate an error condition.
			RTS is high and remains high unless the print head is open (in this case, RTS would return to
			the high state after the print head is closed and the printer is placed back on-line) or an error
			condition occurs during printing (e.g., ribbon out, label out).
5	To Printer		CTS (Clear to Send) - When this line is high, the printer assumes that data is ready to be
			transmitted. The printer will not receive data when this line is low. If this line is not being used,
			it should be tied high (to pin 4).
6	To Printer		DSR (Data Set Ready) - When this line is high, the printer will be ready to receive data. This
			line must be high before data is transmitted. If this line is not being used, it should be tied high
			(to pin 20).
7	Reference		SG (Signal Ground)
20	To Host		DTR (Data Terminally Ready) - This signal applies to Ready/Busy flow control. The printer is
			ready to receive data when this pin is high. It goes low when the printer is off-line, either
			manually or due to an error condition, and while printing in the single job buffer mode. It will
			also go low when the data in the buffer reaches the buffer near full level.
