Print Control

As the direct print module is always in control mode, print orders can only be transmitted but not started via the existing
interfaces (serial, USB or Ethernet). The print is started by a start signal to the 'print start-control input'. So that the control unit
detects when the start signal can be set, it is possible and mostly necessary to track the print status via the control outputs.
Initial Operation

After all connections are completed, switch on the control unit.

Insert the transfer ribbon (see description below).
