Handshake protocols

Centronics protocol

Centronics uses hardwire handshaking. The computer sends a STROBE signal
to move each byte of data into the printer, at which time the printer signals
BUSY. When the transfer is complete, the printer sends ACKNOWLEDGE to
the computer and another cycle can begin.
