Printerreads data until this signal becomesfrom Low to High.DATA0 to Input signal for receiving 8-bit data.Data7 Logic 1 is High. DATA0 isLSB and DATA 7 is MSB./ACK Signal indicating that printer hasread data into device completely.This signal is output in response to/STB.BUSY Signal indicating that printer isunable to receive data. Printer isable to receive data when this signalis Low.PE Signal indicating Paper Out ofprinter. This signal is Low whenpaper is loaded and is High whenpaper is out.SELECT Signal indicating that printer is underonline status. Printer is capable ofreceiving data when this signal isHigh./AUTFD Signal used for bidirectionalcommunicationGND GroundVCC Signal indicating that the power ofprinter is on. This signal allowsverifying ON/OFF status of power ofprinter and connection status ofprinter cable./INT Signal for initializing printer. Steady-state value is High. Printer isinitialized by Low./FAULT Signal indicating that printer is faulty./SELIN Signal used for bidirectionalcommunication
