PARALLEL INTERFACE INTERFACE INFORMATION a 0 This printer can communicate with a computer through either a Centronics parallel interface or a factory-installed add-on RS-232C serial interface. The printer cannot use both interfaces at the same time. This appendix provides information you may need for wiring your own interface cables or for programming computer-to-printer communications. Most users do not need the information in this appendix. To simply connect your printer to your computer, follow the instructions in Chapter 2. The Centronics interface is the industry-standard parallel interface. The cable connector at the printer side should be a shielded, Amphenol DDK 5/t•h-30360 or equivalent The connector pin assignments are given in the table that follows. In the table: • "Input" denotes a signal from the computer to the printer. • "Output" denotes a signal from the printer to the computer. • The return lines specified in the second column represent twisted pairs, with one side connected to signal ground. • The standard signal levels are 0.0 to +0.4 V (low), and +2.4 to +5.0 V (high).

PARALLEL
INTERFACE
INTERFACE
INFORMATION
This
printer
can
communicate
with
a
computer
through
either
a
Centronics
parallel
interface
or
a
factory
-installed
add-on
RS
-232C
serial
interface.
The
printer
cannot
use
both
interfaces
at
the
same
time.
This
appendix
provides
information
you
may
need
for
wiring
your
own
interface
cables
or
for
programming
computer
-to
-printer
commu-
nications.
Most
users
do
not
need
the
information
in
this
appendix.
To
simply
connect
your
printer
to
your
computer,
follow
the
instructions
in
Chapter
2.
The
Centronics
interface
is
the
industry
-standard
parallel
interface.
The
cable
connector
at
the
printer
side
should
be
a
shielded,
Amphenol
DDK
5/t•h-30360
or
equivalent
The
connector
pin
assignments
are
given
in
the
table
that
follows.
In
the
table:
"Input"
denotes
a
signal
from
the
computer
to
the
printer.
"Output"
denotes
a
signal
from
the
printer
to
the
computer.
The
return
lines
specified
in
the
second
column
represent
twisted
pairs,
with
one
side
connected
to
signal
ground.
The
standard
signal
levels
are
0.0
to
+0.4
V
(low),
and
+2.4
to
+5.0
V
(high).
