Serial Interface
Operating Principles
The two handshaking methods are as follows :
Status
flag . . .
(REV) signal
The
signal is set to SPACE
when the printer can accept data and is set to MARK (–V) when
the printer is in an error state or when the empty area in the input buffer reaches 256 bytes or less. In this
way, handshaking with the host is accomplished by setting the
signal to either SPACE or MARK.
(Refer to Figure 2-33.)

NOTES: 1. The value of “T”
according to the input data.
2. The word structure of the serial data is :
1 start bit + 8 data bits parity (Odd, Even, or none) + 1 or more stop bits.

Signal
2. X-ON/X-OFF protocol . . . Sent over the
line
Handshaking is accomplished by sending either X-ON
or X-OFF
over the
line to the host.
When the printer can accept data, the printer sends an X-ON code. When the printer becomes busy, it
sends, an X-OFF code to the host computer. “The X-OFF code is sent to the host when the empty area in
the printer input buffer reaches 256 bytes or less, or when the printer is in an error state (Refer to Figure
2-34.).
