Printers
A DLC port with a companion ADU, when attached to a printer, usually terminates a data call.
Therefore, in this connection, the printer is the endpoint device. The originating device may be
attached to a DCP mode 2 data module (such as the MPDM) or the DLC. A Z3A ADU extends
the range of the EIA 232C connection.
When a receive-only printer (or any printer that does not generate the Transmit Data and DTR
leads) is used, the ADU must be powered from a small plug-mounted transformer (2012D, or
equivalent) connected to pins 7 and 8 of the modular jack. (See ADU User Manual for details.)
An ADU cannot be used if the printer has hardware flow control using the Clear To Send (CTS)
lead. An ADU can be used, however, if the printer is using software flow control.
A printer connected to a DLC is usually assigned as a line.
