INPUT • PRIME (Printer ← Host)
Reset request signal from the host.
Normally at "High" level. A low on this input causes the printer to be initialized in the same
manner as when the power is turned on.
When the INPUT • PRIME signal is input during printing, the printer finish printing one tag
label in printing and then cancels the next processing and is initialized in the same manner
as when the power is turned on.
Minimum pulse width of 0.5 µsec.
PAUSE (Printer → Host)
This is an output signal which indicates whether the printer is in PAUSE state or placed on-
line. The printer can receive data while placed on-line.
The signal is at "Low" level while the printer is in a PAUSE state.
The signal is kept at "Low" level (in a PAUSE state) until the current state (one of the
following states) is reset.
• PAUSE state caused by the PAUSE key
• Paper End state
• Ribbon End state
• Head Open state
• Printer Error state
• Initialization in progress upon power on or receipt of the INPUT • PRIME signal
FAULT (Printer → Host)
Output signal indicating that the printer is in a FAULT state.
At "Low" level while the printer is in a FAULT state.
The signal is kept at "Low" level (in a FAULT state) until the current state (one of the
following states) is reset.
• PAUSE state caused by the PAUSE key
• Paper End state
• Ribbon End state
• Head Open state
• Printer Error state
• Initialization in progress upon power on or receipt of the INPUT • PRIME signal
PE (Printer → Host)
Output signal indicating a Label End or Ribbon End state.
At "High" level when a Label End or Ribbon End state occurs.
Turns to "Low" level when the Label End or Ribbon End state is reset.
+5 V
This is not a signal but a +5 V power supply voltage.
The maximum current of 500 mA can be taken out.
