I STROBE IN The STROBE pulse is used to<br />
read data. When this signal<br />
goes low, data is read in.<br />
DATA 1<br />
3 DATA 2 The signals on pins 2-9<br />
d DATA 3 represent parallel data<br />
5 DATA 4 1: bits l-8. Each signal is at<br />
5 DATA 5 a high level for logical 1<br />

<strong>10</strong> ACK OUT This 9-microsecond pulse<br />
acknowledges the receipt<br />
of data.<br />

OUT The BUSY signal indicates<br />
the operating condition of<br />
the printer. When this<br />
signal goes low, the printer<br />
is ready to accept data.<br />

This signal is used to indicate<br />
“paper-out” status to the<br />
computer. This signal is<br />
normally low; when DIP<br />
switch l-l is off, this<br />
signal is held low.<br />
The SELECTED signal is high<br />
when the printer is on-line.<br />
