  • Page 3: Communication Modes

    Communication Modes 1. Communication ports There are variants of the printer equipped either with a serial interface or both serial and USB interface. The USB interface works in a host mode (in future versions it will be possible to switch between host and slave mode) and it is intended for a connection between the PDA and the printer.

    If this bit is 1 the other bits show the type of the error. The printer never issues a transmission by itself. It always responds as an answer to a command. The communication goes like this: PDA –...
