Interfaces

The IEEE-1284 standard defines 5 modes of operation:

• Compatibility Mode.

• Nibble  Mode. 

• Byte Mode (protocol not implemented in TTP 1020).

• EPP Mode, Enhanced Parallel Port.

• ECP Mode, Extended Capabilities Port (protocol not yet implemented in TTP 1020).

These errors sets the _Fault signal:

• Head lifted

• Cutter not home

• Out of paper

 This error sets the Paper Out/End (PE):

• Out of paper

Always use Zebra-approved interface cables to avoid excessive EMI and 

potentially voiding the printer EMC certifications.

If you use the printer through a Windows driver, you need not read this chapter.

If you intend to use any other mode than Compatibility Mode, we recommend you to 

get the documents for the IEEE-1284 standards, and study them thoroughly.
