I/O DESCRIPTION
IN Taking pin low enables receiving of DATA to
DATA 7. Minimum necessary pulse width is 0.5 uS.
IN 8-bit data signal. Taking pin high or low
corresponds to 1and respectively.
BUSY
PE
SELECT
OUT Active low output pulse generated when data entry
and processing are completed. After this signal,
subsequent data will be accepted. This signal is
also generated when changing from off line to on line.
OUT Output high under any of the following conditions:
a. Going off line.
b. Paper feed or printing operation.
c. When acontrol code is received.
OUT Output high when paper is out. (When on line,
paper out is sensed after executing apaper feed
command. When off line, paper out is always sensed.
OUT On line and off line correspond to high and low
respectively. When off line, DATA to DATA 7are
not receivable.
