Parallel port status signals when an error occurs
Under the specifications for this bi-directional parallel interface, the parallel
port status signals when an error occurs are, as shown below, partially
processed differently than with compatible mode used up till now. When
both are on in the setting menu, even if a printer error has occurred, the
BUSY signal line is not active (“H”).
Compatible timing specification
