Description
STROBE pulse to read data.
Pulse width must be more than
0.5 ps at the receiving terminal.
These signals represent
information in bits 1 to 8 of
parallel data respectively. Each
signal is of HIGH level when
data is logical 1 and LOW when
it is logical 0.
About an 11-µs pulse. LOW
indicates that data has been
received and that the printer is
ready to accept more data.
