RS-232 And RS-422 Serial Interfaces
RS-232 And RS-422 Serial Interface Protocols
X-ON / X-OFF . Transmit On/Transmit Off. The printer transmits an X-ON
character (hex 11) when entering the Ready mode or when the buffer is
almost empty. The printer transmits an X-OFF character (hex 13) when
entering the Not Ready mode or when the buffer is almost full.
ETX / ACK . End of Text/Acknowledge. This host controls the flow of
communication to the printer by sending a block of data and ending the block
with an End of Text (ETX) signal. When the printer receives the ETX signal, it
will acknowledge it has received the entire block of data.
ACK / NAK . Acknowledge/Negative Acknowledge. ACK means acknowledge;
the device acknowledges it has accepted a transmission. NAK means a
negative acknowledge; the device did not receive the transmission.
RS-232 And RS-422 Serial Interface Error Handling
NOTE: All serial errors are treated as faults that require operator intervention.
Parity Error Handling . Parity error checking is a configuration option
selected from the operator panel.
With odd or even parity checking selected, a character with a parity error is
replaced with a question mark (?) character.
When parity checking is not selected (“NONE” on the operator panel), parity
errors are ignored and the characters are printed as received.
Framing Error Handling . Framing error checking is always in effect for the
serial interface.
When a framing error occurs, an exclamation point (!) is printed. If 20
successive errors are received, a line feed is added to force printing to occur.
Overrun Error Handling . Overrun error checking is always in effect for the
serial interface.
When a data overrun error occurs, an asterisk (*) is printed. If 20 successive
erros are received, a line feed is added to force printing to occur.
