DESCRIPTION

A low pulse causes the printer to read one byte of data

These pins are the data lines. Data 0 is the least significant bit (LSB)

The printer sends a low pulse to indicate that it has accepted a byte of data and is ready for more data.

The printer sends a high logic level to indicate to the computer that it cannot receive data due to data entry, a full buffer or error status.

The printer sends a high logic level to indicate to the computer that it is out of paper.

The printer sends a high logic level to indicate to the computer that it is in an online condition. The printer sends a low logic level to indicate that it is offline or that the input buffer is full.

The printer outputs a +5 volt high logic level through a 2.2K ohm resistor.

These pins are tied to signal ground

A low pulse sent by the computer resets the printer and clears the print buffer. The reset occurs on the trailing edge of the pulse

The printer sends a low logic level to the computer to indicate that it is in an error state.
