Interface Signals

The pins of the printer’s RS-232C interface connector carry the signals listed in Table C.2. The table also indicates whether each signal is incoming or outgoing with respect to the printer.

Table C.2. RS-232C Signal Pin Assignments

Pin	In/out	Signal	Description
1	—	FG	Frame ground
2	Out	TXD	Transmit Data
3	In	RXD	Receive Data
4	Out	RTS	Request To Send
5	In	CTS	Clear To Send
6	In	DSR	Data Set Ready
7	—	SG	Signal Ground
11	—	+5V DC	Reserved
20	Out	DTR	Data Terminal Ready

Brief descriptions of the signals follow.

FG - Frame Ground - (Pin 1)

This pin is connected directly to the printer frame.

TXD - Transmit Data - (Pin 2)

This output carries asynchronous data sent by the printer to the computer. It is used mainly in handshaking protocols.
