Signal name Signal direction Function Input Reception data Output Equivalent to DTR signal (pin 20) Input This signal indicates whether the host computer can receive data. SPACE indicates that the host computer can receive data. MARK indicates that the host computer cannot receive data. When DTR/DSR control is selected, the printer transmits data after confirming this signal (except if transmitted using some ESC/POS commands).
