CHAPTER 5 INTERFACE INFORMATION

5.1 Overview

The PrintPartner 20W printer communicates with the host through two parallel interfaces and a serial interface or an

optional interface. The printer automatically selects the interface proper to the occasion. This chapter describes the

parallel and serial interfaces. For locations of the parallel and serial interface connectors and the optional interface’s

slot, see Figure 1.3.

5.2 Parallel Interface (IEEE 1284-B Connector)

The parallel interface is a bidirectional Centronics interface (nibble mode of the IEEE 1284 standard is supported).

5.2.1 Hardware requirements

Signal levels: TTL-compatible

0.0 to +0.4 V for low-level

+2.4 to +5.0 V for high-level

Input circuit: SN74LS14 or equivalent

Figure 5.1 shows the parallel interface input circuit.
