GND pin In/Out Functional description
1 -STROBE 19 In
The strobe pulse. Read-in of data is
performed at the falling edge of this pulse.
2 DATA0 20 In The DATA0 through DATA7 signals
represent data bits 0 to 7, respectively.
Each signal is at high level when data is
logical 1 and low level when data is logical 0.
3 DATA1 21 In
4 DATA2 22 In
5 DATA3 23 In
6 DATA4 24 In
7 DATA5 25 In
8 DATA6 26 In
9 DATA7 27 In
10 -ACKNLG 28 Out
This signal is a negative pulse indicating that
the printer can again accept data.
11 BUSY 29 Out
A high signal indicates that the printer cannot
receive data.
12 PE 28 Out A high signal indicates paper-out error.
13 SLCT 28 Out
Always at high level when the printer is
powered on.
14 -AFXT 30 In Not used.
31 -INIT 30 In
The falling edge of a negative pulse or a low
signal on this line causes the printer to
initialize. Minimum 50 us pulse is necessary.
32 -ERROR 29 Out A low signal indicates printer error condition.
36 -SLIN 30 In Not used.
18 Logic H - Out Pulled up to +5 V via 3.9 K ohm resistor.
35 +5V - Out Pulled up to +5 V via 3.3 K ohm resistor.
