Response Polarity

The Response Polarity parameter must be set to match the response polarity of

your host computer.

Standard does not invert the response signal.

Inverted inverts the response signal sent to the host computer.

Busy on Strobe

Busy on Strobe determines when the Busy signal is asserted.

Enable asserts a busy signal after each character is received.

Disable asserts a busy signal only when the print buffers are full.

Latch Data On

The Latch Data On parameter specifies whether the data is read on the leading

or trailing edge of the data strobe signal.

Leading

Trailing

Prime Signal

Determines whether the parallel port will perform a warm start (a reboot) if the

host asserts the Prime Signal.

Enable (a warm start will occur)

Disable (a warm start will not occur)

TOF Action

TOF (Top-of-Form) Action determines whether or not a form feed is performed

before a warm start when the prime signal is asserted from the host. This setting

is used only if the Prime Signal parameter is enabled.

Reset (form feed on reset)

None (no form feed on reset)
