Interface D-7 User's Manual DSR-enabled control enables communication using an RS-232C interface. The CTS and DSR input control signals are enabled; CD is ignored. DSR must be high when the printer receives data. If the printer has data to be transmitted to the computer, the printer trans- mits the data when both DSR and CTS are high.
User's Manual D-8 INTERFACE INFORMATION Serial Protocols A protocol is a set of instructions that control the way data is transmit- ted between devices such as a computer and printer. The protocol ensures that the computer does not send information to the printer faster than the information can be processed.
