the system is printing in the internal mode, or in external mode B, in
which internal mode data and external character data are selectively
printed according to command specfications.

External Mode A Operation
After printing internal data in either the normal or real modes, character
signals are accepted from the external equipment and printed out.

Character Signal Length and Character Printing
① Signals for less than 35 characters ＋ terminator
35 characters or less (term)
Characters are printed up to the terminator.
② Signals for more than 37characters ＋ terminator
37 characters or more (term)
As data for 36 character is accumulated in the buffer memory,

characters are printed out each time data for 36 characters
is received. This is repeated unit the terminator is received.
