• When DIP SW 2-1 is set to OFF, XON is not transmitted if the printer is in offline state in case
②.
2.1.1.5 Notes on setting DIP switch 2-1 to ON
1) The printer mechanism stops but does not become busy when: an error has occurred, the
cover is open, printing stops due to a paper-end, or paper is fed using the paper feed button.
2) When setting DIP switch 2-1 to ON to enable handshaking with the printer, be sure to check
the printer status using the GS a command and the ASB function. In this setting, the default
value of n for GS a is 2. The printer automatically transmits the printer status, depending on
online/offline changes.
3) When using DLE EOT, DLE ENQ, and DLE DC4 be sure that the receive buffer does not
become full.
• When using a host that cannot transmit data when the printer is busy:
If an error has occurred, DLE EOT, DLE ENQ, and DLE DC4 cannot be used when the
printer is busy due to a receive buffer-full state.
• When using a host that can transmit data when the printer is busy:
When the receive buffer becomes full while transmitting bit-image data, and DLE EOT,
DLE ENQ, or DLE DC4 is sent, the command also is processed as bit-image data. The
data transmitted when the receive buffer is full may be lost.
Example: Check the printer status using GS I
II
I or GS r after transmitting each line of data,
and use the 4 KB receive buffer. Transmit one line of data so that the receive
buffer does not become full.
2.1.1.6 Notes on Resetting the Printer Using the Interface
The printer can be reset using interface pins 6 and 25 by changing the DIP switch setting (refer to
Section 3.3.3, DIP switch 2).
Table 2.1.3 Reset Switching
Signal Line DIP Switch Reset Condition
Pin 6 (DSR) DSW 2-7: ON MARK level input
Pin 25 (INIT) DSW 2-8: ON SPACE or TTL-HIGH level input
To reset the printer, the following requirements must be satisfied.
