PRINTERS

The OptiView control center provides the required for-
matting control codes for the printers based upon the
printer selected. These codes are transmitted through
the serial data interface to the printer to provide a prop-
er print format.
Different printers require different formatting control
codes. Other printers may provide proper operation
when connected to the control center, but the print for-
mat may not be correct.
Exercise care and use the following guidelines if an un-
listed printer is to be connected to the OptiView panel:
1. The printer must be capable of RS-232 Serial
communications.
2. Primary differences between printers involve the
formatting control codes required by the printer.
These codes are sent from the control center to
the printer. For example, Weigh -Tronix printers
require a control code to select 40 column width.
This same code is interpreted by the Okidata
printer as an instruction to print wide characters.
In some instances, a printer will ignore a code that
cannot be interpreted.
3. The control center requires a busy signal from the
printer when the printer receive buffer is full. This
causes the control center to suspend data trans-
mission until the printer can accept more data.
The busy signal polarity must be logic low when
busy for proper printer operation.
