DTR/DSR Protocol
The DTR signal is used to control data transmission to the printer. It is driven low when
the printer is ready to receive data and driven high when it cannot accept any more
data. Data is transmitted from the printer after it confirms that the DSR signal is low.
RS-232C Technical Specifications
This section describes the pin settings for the connectors and the RS-232C interface
parameters. The RS-232C parameters are selected through the configuration menu
feature. The RS-232C parameters must match those of the host computer.
