These signals represent
information in bits 0 to 7 of
parallel data respectively.
Each signal is at HIGH level
when data is logical 1 and
LOW when it is logical 0.
10 28
ACKNLG OUT About a 5-
µ
s pulse. LOW
indicates data has been
received and the printer is
ready to accept more data.
11 29 BUSY OUT A HIGH signal indicates the
printer cannot receive data.
The signal goes HIGH in the
following cases:
1) During data entry
(for each character)
2) During initialization
3) During self test,
demonstration, and
default-setting printing
4) During a printer-error state
12 30 PE OUT A HIGH signal indicates the
printer is in a paper-out state
or in an error state.
