Description

Pulled up to + 5 volts through 3.3 Kohm
resistance.

When this signal is LOW, the paper is
automatically fed 1 line after printing. (The
signal level can be fixed to this by setting
DIP switch 2-4 to on.)

Not used.

Logic ground level.

Printer’s chassis ground, which is
isolated from the logic ground.

Not used.

Twisted-pair return signal ground level.

When this level becomes LOW, the printer
controller is reset to its power-up state
and the print buffer is cleared. This level is

normally HIGH; its pulse width must be
more than 50 microseconds at the

receiving terminal.

This level becomes LOW when the printer

is:

1) in paper out state.

2) off line.

3) in error state.

Same as for Pins 19-30.

Not used.
