IEEE-488
Interface
Both
printer
models conform
to
IEEE-488
interface
requirements
and
may
be connected
directly to
your
Commodore
computer.
The
printers,
designed
to
be used
with the
Commodore
CBM
Floppy
Disk
Drive,
Model
2040,
may
be daisy-chained
with other
IEEE-488
devices.
Paper Feed
Mechanisms
The Model 4022
Printer
employs
a
tractor
feed
mechanism
that
involves
the
use
of
sprocket holes
in
the
paper edges.
This
model
is
especially useful
for
the
printing of
business
forms.
See
Figure
1
.
Printer
Ribbon
The
printer
ribbon
(shown
in
Figure
2)
is
an
easily-loaded
cartridge.
Internal
Microprocessor
System
Your
printer
contains a
microprocessor system
that resets
and
executes
a
diagnostic
and
initialization
sequence
when
power
is
applied.
In
addition,
it
contains
a
random
access
memory
(RAM)
in
which you can
store formatting
data.
Because
your
printer
is
an
"intelligent"
peripheral,
it
uses
none
of
your computer's
memory.
Specifications
Table
1
shows
the
specifications
for
