2.1 The power supply
The power supply is DC 5.0~8.4V, 3A / DC 9~24V, 30W. (Refer to the printer model).
It is shown as follows:
Platform style: the column end is positive pole (+), the board end is negative pole (‐).
2.2 The serial interface
The serial interface of the printer has three kinds of logic signal level: TTL, 232, and 485
(refer to the printer model). By default, the baud rate is 9600bps. Asynchronous frame
format is one start bit, 8 data bits, and one stop bit.
The serial interface is as follows:
