CHAPTER 1 FEATURES The PrintPartner 20W is an electrophotographic, semiconductor laser, desktop, cut-sheet, page printer suitable for a wide range of applications. With a minimum of modifications, it can be used for OEM applications. The PrintPartner 20W emulates the HP LaserJet 5 page printers (PCL6 including PCL5e) and the PostScript level 2 printers (PSL2). Its resolution (print density) is 600 × 600 dpi in PCL5e or PSL2 emulation or 1200 × 1200 dpi in PCL6 emulation.

1.1 Fine Print Quality The PrintPartner 20W uses electrophotography and a semiconductor laser unit that is compact, easy to control, and consumes very little power. The print resolution is 600 × 600 dpi (23.6 lines/mm). It is 1200 × 1200 dpi (47.2 lines/mm) at the half speed. Natural curves and very fine lines are printed clearly. With the smoothing function enabled, the print resolution is equivalent to 2400 × 600 dpi (horizontally 94.5 lines/ mm and vertically 23.6 lines/mm).
1.4 High Reliability and Easy Maintenance The PrintPartner 20W design has been simplified. The print unit and the toner bottle can be removed and replaced easily without getting hands dirty. A variety of functions are integrated onto a single printed circuit board (main controller). A mechanism controller board including driver circuits is provided separately from the main controller. The self-diagnostics function checks printer hardware.
1.6 Wide Variety of Interfaces and Emulations The PrintPartner 20W comes standard with two bidirectional Centronics parallel interfaces (IEEE1284 TYPE-B and TYPE-C connectors) and an RS-232C serial interface (D-SUB 9-pin connector). Three optional interface boards, LocalTalk (AppleTalk compatible), Ethernet (TCP/IP, IPX/SPX, and EtherTalk corresponding), and IrDA (infrared adapter), are offered.
1.8 User-Friendly Operation The control panel consists of eight push-button switches, four LED indicators, and an LCD (two lines by sixteen characters). The LED indicators provide printer’s basic status information and the LCD provides status and error messages by language. Print menu, such as a message language, paper size, and line spacing, can be set easily using the control panel or remotely using the utility programs, MarkVision™ and PPMENU. 1.
CHAPTER 2 MODEL CONFIGURATION AND EQUIPMENT STRUCTURE This chapter gives the model configuration and equipment structure. Printer specifications differ between the 110– 120V version printers and the 220–240 V version printers. 2.
2.2 Block Diagram Figure 2.1 shows a block diagram of the PrintPartner 20W printers.
Images are printed using an electrographic process: The laser unit, modulated by video signals, sends light to the photoconductive drum and generates a latent electrostatic image that is converted to a toner image in the print unit. The paper attracts the toner image from the photoconductive drum, and the image is transferred to the paper. Heat generated by the heat roller fuses the transferred toner image to the paper, and the paper is ejected to the stacker.

4.2 Printer Utility Programs The PrintPartner 20W is equipped with the three printer utility programs: Printer Management Utility Program, MarkVision™; Printer Remote Setup Utility Program, PPMENU; and Remote Printer Utility Program. This section describes MarkVision™ and PPMENU, standard for the PrintPartner 20W. These utility programs can be used in the environments shown below: Client Client Windows 3.
To use MarkVision™, the computer and its operating environments must be as follows: • • • • • IBM PC/AT or compatible or PS/2 Microsoft Windows 95/98 or NT 4.0 (not Windows 3.X) VGA (640 x 400) or higher display Hard disk drive installed (9 MB essential for MarkVision™) CD-ROM drive Menu Bar Functions The top menu bar offers three functions. The screen displays information and a graphic of the printer corresponding to the function selected. The bottom line displays printer status.
4.2.2 PPMENU PPMENU, stored in the “PrintPartner Software CD-ROM” which comes with the printer, allows the user to change printer’s features directly from the computer display and keyboard. Operations are easy enough that the user’s manual need not be referenced once the user is familiar with the printer. PPMENU is useful to configure the printer to suit the requirements of user’s computer, software, and documents to be printed.

CHAPTER 5 INTERFACE INFORMATION 5.1 Overview The PrintPartner 20W printer communicates with the host through two parallel interfaces and a serial interface or an optional interface. The printer automatically selects the interface proper to the occasion. This chapter describes the parallel and serial interfaces. For locations of the parallel and serial interface connectors and the optional interface’s slot, see Figure 1.3. 5.

5.2.3 Data transmission timing The PrintPartner 20W uses a bi-directional parallel interface complying with IEEE 1284. This interface is also compatible with the conventional Centronics interface. Data transfer from host to printer is performed according to Centronics standard, called compatible mode. Data transfer from printer to host is performed according to the IEEE 1284 standard, called nibble mode.

5.4 RS-232C Serial Interface The RS-232C serial interface is a standard interface of this printer. 5.4.1 Hardware requirements Signal levels: –3 V or lower for a mark condition (logical 1) +3 V or higher for a space condition (logical 0) Input circuit: An MC1489AL or equivalent is used to convert from the RS-232C level to the TTL level. Figure 5.9 shows the RS-232C interface input circuit. Figure 5.

Table 5.
5.4.3 Serial data format The format of 10-bit or 11-bit serial data, given in Figure 5.12, consists of a start bit, data bits, a parity bit, and stop bits. A bit is in the mark state when not being transmitted. Data bits start with the least significant bit (LSB). For example, the character “K” (hexadecimal 4B) is transmitted as shown in Figure 5.12 (7 data bits, even parity).

(2) DTR protocol The DTR signal is set off (low). That is, the Busy signal is issued when 255 bytes of data remain in the buffer. When the printer is placed offline, the DTR signal is set off (low). Transmission must stop within 255 bytes after the DTR signal is set off (low). The validity of data cannot be guaranteed if data exceeding the buffer capacity is transmitted regardless of the DTR signal.
5.5 Command Sets 5.5.1 Printer emulation This section gives an overview of the Hewlett-Packard LaserJet 5 command set and the PostScript level 2 command set, which are the resident emulation of the PrintPartner 20W. This section does not provide the command details and programming examples needed to modify software packages or write user programs. The printer automatically senses the proper emulation.

CHAPTER 6 MAINTENANCE 6.1 Overview The PrintPartner 20W printer, with its simple mechanism and latest electronics techniques, is highly reliable and easy to maintain. Changing spare parts require no adjustments so that replacement is easy. 6.2 Preventive Maintenance No scheduled maintenance is required. However, it is recommended that the printer be kept clean to increase the service life and MTBF. 6.3 Maintenance Philosophy The printer is designed to make maintenance as infrequent as possible.
