LSI/Printhead Interface
The connection between the LSI and the printhead is made with the bi-directional serial data bus.
The LSI transmits the print data as serial data to the logic circuit of the printhead. The printhead
returns serial data from the printhead sensor analog circuit to the LSI. This information is used to
determine the optimum drive time for the next print request.
The logic circuit of the printhead signals the LSI if a parity error is detected in the print data.
