Operating Principles EPL-N1200 Service Manual 2.2.1.5 Parallel-B Interface Circuit Figure 2-32 shows the Parallel-B interface circuit block diagram. Data sent from the host computer is latched within the E05A93 by the STROBE signal. The E05A93 outputs the BUSY signal to stop the host computer from sending additional data. The CPU resets the BUSY signal after reading the data from the E05A93, so that the printer is ready to receive more data from the host computer.

2.2.1.5 Parallel-B Interface Circuit
Figure 2-32 shows the Parallel-B interface circuit block diagram. Data sent from the host computer
is latched within the E05A93 by the
STROBE signal. The E05A93 outputs the BUSY signal to stop
the host computer from sending additional data.
The CPU resets the BUSY signal after reading the
data from the E05A93, so that the printer is ready to receive more data from the host computer.
2.2.1.6 Parallel-C Interface Circuit
Figure 2-33 shows the Parallel-C interface circuit block diagram. The 74ACT1284 is a bi-directional
bus driver IC that used to satisfy the data bus length under the IEEE1284 standard. The
E05B27(IC43) is used the Parallel-C interface to support, not only standard parallel interface, but
also compatibility mode and bi-directional mode (Nibble and ECP) under the IEEE1284 standard.
