Interface Signals
The pins of the printer's RS-232C interface connector carry the signals listed in Table
C.2
. The table also
indicates whether each signal is incoming or outgoing with respect to the printer.
Brief descriptions of the signals follow.
FG - 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.
RTS - Request To Send - (Pin 4)
This output is always held high (above 3 volts).
CTS - Clear To Send - (Pin 5)
DSR - Data Set Ready - (Pin 6)
Unused.
SG - Signal Ground - (Pin 7)
All signals can transmit between the printer and the host computer to send each signals with a signal
ground.
DTR - Data Terminal Ready - (Pin 20)
This output is used as a buffer nearly-full handshake line. It is held high (above 3 volts) when the buffer can
accept more data.
RS-232C Interface Voltage Levels
The voltage levels of the interface signals conform to EIA RS-232C specifications. SPACE is from 3 volts to
15 volts. MARK is from -3 volts to -15 volts. Voltages between -3 volts and 3 volts are undefined.
