These signals represent information of the 1st to 8th bits of parallel data, respectively Each signal is at HIGH level when data is logical 1 and LOW when it is logical 0. Approximately 12-microsecond pulse. LOW indicates that data has been received and that the printer is ready to accept more data. A HIGH signal indicates that the printer cannot receive data. The signal goes HIGH in the following cases: 1) During data entry (ea.char.time) 2) During printing 3) When Off-Line 4) During printer-error state F-1
