3. Data trans. timing Refer to the IEEE-1284 specification and the following.
* Rise and fall time of every output signal
** Rise and fall time of every input signal
* The Logic H signal goes low, 2.0 V or less, when the printer is turned off and goes high, 3.0
V or more, when the printer is turned on. The receiver shall provide an impedance equivalent
to 7.5 KΩ to ground.
4. Extensibility Request:
The printer responds affirmatively when the extensibility request values are 00H or
04H, which mean
n 00H Request nibble mode reverse channel transfer
