Reverse Channel - Printronix P9212 Setup Manual

Reverse Channel

The Reverse Channel parameter selects how the printer controls the Reverse
Channel (RC) signal. RC is a control signal from the printer to the host
computer indicating whether or not the printer is ready to receive data. You
should set this parameter according to the manner in which the host computer
uses RC.
•
On-Line and BNF: The printer asserts RC whenever it is on-line and its
internal input buffer is not full (BNF).
•
Off-Line or BF: The printer asserts RC whenever it is off-line or its
buffer is almost full (BF).
•
False: The printer continuously de-asserts RC.
•
True: The printer continuously asserts RC.
