    Ext Connector 3.2 Interface Types The parallel interface for CL608e/CL612e printers is a high speed, bi-directional parallel interface that conforms to the IEEE 1284 specification. (ECP mode on some computers). The interface is also compatible with the older Centronics parallel interface standard. If it does not detect the correct IEEE 1284 signals in the interface connection, it will automatically operate in the standard Centronics mode which is much slower.

  • Page 70: Rs232C Interface Signals

    . l e Ready/Busy Flow Control Ready/Busy is the hardware flow control for the serial interface on the CL608e/CL612e printers. By raising/lowering the voltage level on Pin 20 of the RS232 port, the printer notifies the host when it is ready to receive data. Pin 4 (RTS) and pin 20 (DTR) are the important signals on the printer for this method of flow control.
