Note:
The column heading "Direction" refers to the direction of
l
signal flow as viewed from the printer.
"Return" denotes the twisted-pair return, to be connected at
l
signal ground level. For the interface wiring, be sure to use a
twisted-pair cable for each signal and to complete the
connection on the return side.
All interface conditions are based on TTL level. Both the rise
