Input/Output<br />

Meaning<br />

1 --- - free<br />

2 R x d I Received data<br />

3 T x d O Transmitted data<br />

4 DTR O Data Terminal Ready<br />

5 GND - Signal Ground<br />

6 --- - free<br />

7 RTS O +12V<br />

8 CTS I Clear to Send<br />

9 --- - free<br />

Pin 2<br />

Received Data (RxD):<br />

Serial transfer of data from the computer to the printer.<br />

Pin 3<br />

Transmitted Data (TxD):<br />

Serial transfer of data from the printer to the computer system or the terminal (e.g.<br />

X ON /X OFF symbol).<br />

Pin 4<br />

Data Terminal Ready (DTR):<br />

Printer output, which allows the transfer of data to the printer or which interrupts it<br />

(handshaking). Data transfer is possible, when DTR is high. It is not possible, when<br />

DTR is low.<br />

Pin 5<br />

Signal Ground (GND):<br />

The reference potential for the entire data exchange.<br />

Pin 7<br />

Request to Send (RTS):<br />

This signal is always high with a switched on printer.<br />

Pin 8<br />

Clear to Send (CTS):<br />

Input of the printer, which allows the transfer of data to the computer or which interrupts<br />

it. When the input is high, then the printer may transmit the data. For the<br />

software handshaking with Xon/Xoff, this input must always be high.<br />
