Appendix A Host Computer Interface
This appendix explains the signals used in the printer’s
parallel, USB, and serial (option) interfaces. It also lists pin
assignments, signal functions, timings, connector
specifications, and voltage levels.
This appendix explains the following topics:
Parallel Interface
•USB Interface
Serial Interface (option)
The printer features fast data transmission with the parallel
interface. The parallel interface mode can be activated from
the operator panel. See
Changing Parallel Interface Modes on
page 1-43
.
Use a parallel printer cable that complies with the IEEE1284
standard.
Auto (default)
The printer automatically changes its communication mode
to the one the host computer is currently using. Ordinarily,
you should leave this setting unchanged.
Normal
The printer uses the standard communication method
prescribed for Centronics interfaces.
High-speed
This mode enables faster data transmission between the
printer and the host computer. (Select this mode if printing
problems occur when the printer is connected to a
workstation.)
Nibble (high)
High speed data communication is used in compliance with
the IEEE1284 standard.
The pins of the parallel interface connector carry the signals
listed in the following table
Parallel Connector Pin
Assignment
. Asterisks in the table indicate signals that are
active low. The table also indicates whether each signal is
incoming or outgoing with respect to the printer.
Parallel Connector Pin Assignment
[ ]: Signal names in the Auto mode and Nibble (high) mode
(IEEE1284). In the Auto mode and Nibble (high) mode,
these signals are bi-directional.
Detailed descriptions of the signals follow.
