onto the PD0 - PD7 ports. During a READ operation, PD0 - PD7 ports are read and output to the host
CPU.
Mode 011 (ECP FIFO - Address/RLE)
A data byte written to this address is placed in the FIFO and tagged as an ECP Address/RLE. The
hardware at the ECP port transmits this byte to the peripheral automatically. The operation of this register
is only defined for the forward direction (direction is 0). Refer to the ECP Parallel Port Forward Timing
Diagram, located in the Timing Diagrams section of this data sheet .
DEVICE STATUS REGISTER (dsr)
ADDRESS OFFSET = 01H
The Status Port is located at an offset of '01H' from the base address. Bits 0 - 2 are not implemented as
register bits, during a read of the Printer Status Register these bits are a low level. The bits of the Status
Port are defined as follows:
BIT 3 nFault
The level on the nFault input is read by the CPU as bit 3 of the Device Status Register.
BIT 4 Select
The level on the Select input is read by the CPU as bit 4 of the Device Status Register.
BIT 5 PError
The level on the PError input is read by the CPU as bit 5 of the Device Status Register. Printer Status
Register.
BIT 6 nAck
The level on the nAck input is read by the CPU as bit 6 of the Device Status Register.
BIT 7 nBusy
The complement of the level on the BUSY input is read by the CPU as bit 7 of the Device Status Register.
DEVICE CONTROL REGISTER (dcr)
ADDRESS OFFSET = 02H
The Control Register is located at an offset of '02H' from the base address. The Control Register is
initialized to zero by the RESET input, bits 0 to 5 only being affected; bits 6 and 7 are hard wired low.
BIT 0 STROBE - STROBE
This bit is inverted and output onto the nSTROBE output.
BIT 1 AUTOFD - AUTOFEED
This bit is inverted and output onto the nAUTOFD output. A logic 1 causes the printer to generate a line
feed after each line is printed. A logic 0 means no autofeed.
