1.9 PRINTER INTERFACE TYPES
Because the printer acts as an ouQJUt device for another device such as a
computer, it must have a communications interface to enable data to be
transmitted between the two devices.
This printer has two types of communications interfaces:
•
EIA RS-232-C serial interface
•
TTL level 8-bit Centronics parallel interface
These types of interfaces are industry standards which allow compatibility with a
large number of other products. For more detailed information about interfacing,
see Chapter 3.
