the even and odd parity checks.

RECEIVING CONTROL AND BUFFERING

This equipment controls, on receipt of print data, receiving (DTR Control) in one-word
unit. If the host disregards DTR and carries out data transmission at this time, over-
run of receiving data may be resulted. This state should be avoided on the host’s
responsibility. (The data discharging type host cannot follow this.) This is applicable
when the host adopts a double buffer type transmitter.
