DA615 instruction manual

6. Interfaces

The DA615 printer is equipped with two standard data communications interfaces.

The interface connection sockets are:

- Centronics parallel

- RS-232-C serial

Both of them allow connection of the printer to the terminal or the
computer.

Centronics parallel interface

The DA615 printer is equipped with a standard Centronics parallel
interface. This interface is most frequently used for connecting to a
personal computer. In contrast to the RS-232-C serial socket, it usually
requires no special instructions or configurations for the printer or
computer. In addition, the Centronics parallel interface cable allows
faster data transmission.

The parallel interface connector has a standard 36-pin Amphenol
socket with two metal clips.
