Data transfer must be carried out by observing the ACKNLG or
BUSY signal. (Data transfer to this printer can be carried out only
after receipt of the ACKNLG signal or when the level of the BUSY
signal is LOW.)
5.
Under normal conditions, printer cable pins
11, 12,
and
32
are acti-
vated when the paper-out condition is detected. The ESCape”8”
code disables pins 11 and
32,
but not pin
12.
Those computers that
monitor pin
12
halt printing when the paper is out, making ESCape
“8”
ineffective.
