1) Start bit
1/2 bit past the line dropping from MARK to SPACE, a status reading is taken again. If the reading is SPACE, a start bit is recognized.
2) Data bits and Parity bit
Data bit and Parity bit are checked out every bit form the half point of start bit. Signal level of these points (Mark = 1, Space = 0) are read as input data. The sequence of these bit is Bit 0, Bit 1 ~ Parity bit from Start bit.
3) Stop bit
The stop bit consists of one or more bits at “mark” level. When “space” level is detected for a stop bit, a framing error occurs.
CITIZEN 19/38
iDP-3535 User’s Manual

5-5 Error Detection

The printer detects Parity, Framing and Overrun Error. When any error is detected, the data is printed out as (7FH).
Framing Error;
Framing error occurs when SPACE signal is checked out at STOP BIT and the printer print out (7FH).
Parity Error;
Parity check is carried out only when user designates it on the printer pre-setting.
Input Control and Buffering; (over-run-error) The printer is designed to output DTR signals for each word. If the host computer neglects DTR signal and transmits the data, it may cause the “OVER-RUN ERROR”. In order to avoid such case, set up the host computer to observe DTR signals from the printer by following the connector pin assignments described in 5-2.
Other errors When an error is detected at the printer mechanism, SEL / ALARM light is flickered. FAULT signal becomes SPACE states, DTR signal becomes BUSY status. Then printer becomes OFF LINE.
After the error is corrected, SEL / ALARM light becomes off by pushing SEL switch. The reception of data is resumed when SEL switch is pushed again.

8-3 Input Data Formats

The data input to the printer is made by the codes listed in the Character Code Table. (1) Standard Character Print Mode Designation.
LF (0A)
The printer goes automatically to the standard character mode immediately after power-on initialization or line feed. Therefore, US code can be omitted. In addition, an automatic line feed is carried out after inputting the data for one line (Full Buffer Print). The same function as US code is performed by using SI code (except for serial 7 bit data use).
(2) Double-Width Character Print Mode Designation
LF (0A)
All print data following RS code are printed out in double-width size and this code can be released by US code. It is possible to mix the characters in normal width and double width on one line. However, because a double-width character requires twice the normal width, take care not to exceed the column capacity of the printer. When the input data become full to fill one line, the Full Buffer Print and one line feed will be automatically carried out. RS code will be automatically cancelled after each line feed. The same function as RS is performed by SO code (except for serial 7 bit data use).
(3) Red Color Print Mode Designation
LF (0A)
All print data including DC2 are printed in red color and it’s not possible to mix the black and red color characters on one line. This command will be automatically canceled after the line feed. If DC2 commands are used 2 times on the same line by error, the printer will print out all characters in black color.
(4) Paging Designation and Page Length Designation
n
Input ESC + “C” (1B 43) at the top of the line and next input n, which are integers. With this code, the length (number of lines) per page can be set, and paging action is started, and the space of three lines are left at the both top and bottom of the page, n should be;14 n 120
Otherwise, it will be 66. The paging can be released by ESC + “0” (1B,4F).

(5) Form Feed
FF(0C)
With this code, paper feed goes on. If there is data in the buffer when this code is input, the printer does from feed printing. The top of form for the next page is made in accordance with the page length which was specified with ESC + “C” + “n”. Top of position of the page is determined when power is turned on or when page length is specified with ESC + “C” + “n”.
(6) Canceling
CAN(12)
All the data in one line prior to CAN are cleared entirely with this code. (7) Cash drawer control
BEL(07)
Command to drive the drawer port 1 for 0.2 second period. DIP switch DS-1 is selected for drawer.
(8) Drawer 2 control
SUB(1A)
With this code, the drawer port 2 is driven for 0.2 second period. The drawer command can be set at any place in one line. In case the data are stored in the print buffer when the command is recognized, the command is executed after the contents of the buffer are printed. In case the data are not stored in the buffer, the command is executed immediately.

10. Maintenance

10-1 Maintenance Procedures It is recommended that users perform periodic cleaning of their printer.

(1) Exterior
The exterior case of the printer can be cleaned with alcohol. Care should be taken to keep water from reaching the electronic parts and the printing mechanism.
(2) Interior
There is no particular requirement, however, when the printer case is opened to change settings etc., dust and other foreign matter may be removed from the printer mechanism and circuit boards with a soft brush. Special care should be taken to avoid damage to electronic parts and wiring. Furthermore, be sure to disconnect the power plug from the electric outlet before opening the printer case.
