1.1.3. Communication Protocol 1) General description of operations in the DTR mode This mode abides by the DIP switch settings. (Ex-factory settings) This mode performs communication while handshaking with the DTR signals. In the operations to receive printer data, this mode controls the DTR signals by confirming the BUSY signal. A SPACE indicates that the printer is ready to receive data; conversely, a “mark” indicates that the printer cannot receive data.

3) General description of operations in the XON/XOFF mode This mode is set when DIPSW #1 to #3 are turned OFF. This mode notifies the host of the XON (DC1) data when the printer can receive data and the XOFF (DC3) data when the printer cannot receive data, using the TXD signals. This functions so that XON outputs only 1 byte when the printer shifts from OFFLINE (printer busy) to ONLINE (printer ready) and; XOFF outputs 1 byte when the printer shifts from ONLINE (printer ready) to

Reception data is temporarily stored in the reception buffer, then processed sequentially. • Line buffer The buffer for storing image data for printing is called the line buffer. • Line buffer full The state in which the buffer has no more space available is called line buffer full. When the buffer is ful

3.2. Exception Processing 1) Undefined codes Codes from <00>H to <1F>H are targeted. When codes not defined as commands in this region are received, they are discarded. (Ex.) If processing the data string of <30>H<31>H<03>H<32>H<0A>H<33>H, the printer will discard <03>H as an undefined code. 2) Undefined commands When data continuing the codes of ESC, FS, GS, DLE are codes not defined as commands, ESC, FS,GS and subsequent codes are discarded.
