codes are sent from the Control Center to the print er.
For example, Weigh -Tronix printers require a con trol
code to select 40 column width. This same code is
interpreted by the Okidata printer as an in struc tion
to print wide characters. In some in stanc es, a printer
will ignore a code it cannot interpret.
3. The Control Center requires a busy signal from the
printer when the printer receive buffer is full. This
causes the Control Center to mo men tari ly ter mi nate
data transmission until the printer can accept more
data. The busy signal polarity must be as sert ed low
when busy.
