Title:
プリンタ及びその制御方法
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP4560917
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
When the printer is off-line and receives a large volume of data, a receive buffer (17) is not filled and the communication interface with the host computer (10) does not enter a busy state. The receive buffer (17) temporarily stores data, including control commands, from the host computer (10), and the printer operates according to the sequentially interpreted content of data stored in the receive buffer (17). By detecting whether the printer is on-line or off-line, data in the receive buffer (17) is cleared when the printer goes off-line and data received from the host while the printer is off-line is discarded without being buffered.
