Logic Components
[ 1 ] CPU (M30622M8)
The CPU (#3) is a 16-bit microprocessor manufactured by Mitsubishi Electric Corp.,
which controls and manages the entire system.
This CPU integrates a 64-kilobyte ROM which stores all programs and a 4-kilobyte RAM.
[ 2 ] RAM (SRAM)
The RAM is a 32-kilobyte SRAM (#4) which is used as a data buffer.
[ 3 ] ROM (EEPROM)
The ROM is a 1-kilobit EEPROM (#1) which stores the transmission speed and
mechanical information.

Solder Points
Fig. 3.2-2 shows a circuit diagram relating to solder points. Solder points A to C are
soldered according to the resistance property of the thermal head.
The CPU reads the status of the solder points once in the powering-on sequence to
recognize the customization.
