signals that are active low.

C-2 C.1. Parallel Interface Detailed descriptions of the signals follow. Strobe* [nStrobe] (Pin 1) A negative-going Strobe* pulse causes the printer to read
and latch the data on the Data 0 [1] to Data 7 [8] signal lines. Data 0 [1] to Data 7 [8] (Pins 2 to 9) These eight signals form the data byte sent from the host
computer to the printer.
Data 7 [8] is the most significant bit. Acknowledge* [nAck] (Pin 10) This negative-going pulse acknowledges the previous character received by the printer.
Acknowledge* pulses are sent only when Busy is low. Busy [Busy] (Pin 11) This signal is high when the printer is busy and low when it is able to accept more
data. Every high-to-low transition is followed by an Acknowledge* pulse. Paper Empty [PError] (Pin 12) This signal goes high when the printer runs out of
paper. On-Line [Select] (Pin 13) This signal is high when the printer is on-line and low when the printer is off-line. It goes low when the upper unit is raised,
or when the ON LINE key is pressed to set the printer off-line. The Paper Empty and On-Line signals are not used unless enabled by the FRPO command (O2
parameter). +5V DC (pin 18) This line is connected to the printer's +5V DC line (+5V ±0.
5V, 250 mA [Serial and Parallel total] maximum, fused.) Reset [nInit] (Pin 31) This signal is used in the standard Centronics interface to enable the computer
to reset the printer. Error* [nFault] (Pin 32) When the high-speed parallel line control is on (FRPO O2=2), this line returns error status. Auxiliary output 1
(Pin 33) This signal line is not used. Power Ready (Pin 35) This signal is high when the printer's power is on. Select In [NSelectIn] (Pin 36) This signal is
used in some versions of the Centronics interface to enable the computer to force the printer on-line. In high-speed mode, it is used as an interrupt. C-3 C.2.

- 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.
RXD - Receive Data - (Pin 3) This input carries serial asynchronous data sent by the computer to the printer.
