*If there is no CR, one "fill" character should be added to that shown.
**If BACKSPACE code is used more than once, it may take the place of "fill" characters; e.g., at 30 cps, to type and
underscore "AND", send A N D BS BS BS fill fill fill - - - .
The delay is required to insure hammers have
recovered from the previous actuation.
***The TermiNet 300 Printer will go from a motor off state to a printing or "ON LINE"
state
in response to the two
code sequence ESC h or H, or also in the case of automatic motor on from the Data Set.
The delay is required
to allow the motor to come up to speed.
****The TermiNet 300 Printer will go from a printing "ON LINE" state to a motor off state in response to the two
code sequence ESC
j
or
J,
by the EOT code (when jumpered), or also in the case of automatic motor off from the
Data Set.
The delay that precedes the motor off command is required to allow time to print any characters that
are in memory waiting for the proper registration of the hammers and belt.
