RS-232C
Connector
DSUB 25-pin
Protocol control
XON/XOFF and CTS/DTR
Receive buffer size
12K bytes
Receiving data stops when the remaining buffer reaches 2K
bytes and resumes when the remaining buffer reaches 4K bytes
Baud rate
300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400 bps
Bit length
7-or 8-bit
(Select 8-bit length when using Kana or Kanli)
Stop bit
Fixed
When printer receives data, stop bit is fixed at 1, and when
printer transmits data, stop bit is fixed at 2, But computer can
transmit and receive data, regardless of stop bit at 1 or 2
Parity
