²
H stands for the host and P stands for the printer;
²
The letter “n” in front of signal name indicates that the low level is effective;
²
In data transmission, the host should not ignore “Busy” signal; otherwise print data may be
missing;
²
If the host cannot provide all the signal lines listed in the table above, the communication
may fail;
²
Parallel interface signal adopts TTL level; the rise and fall time of the signal from the host
must be controlled within 0.5 s when it is used;
²
For the interface, the signal line should use twisted pair with feeder line end, with the
feeder line end connected to signal ground;
²
The parallel interface connecting wire should be as short as possible on condition that it
meets the use condition.
