PREFACE
This document provides supplementary information to describe the new DLQ-3000 (Minerva+), which is a
follow-on version of the DLQ-3000 (Minerva). Therefore, you must refer to this information in conjunction with
DLQ-3000 (Minerva) Service Manual for details on any subjects common to both printers.

1.1 FEATURES
Minerva+ is a 24-pin serial dot-matrix and flat-bed type impact printer. As this printer follows on DLQ-3000
(MINERVA+), the main future is almost same as DLQ-3000 (MINERVA).
The main features are ;
❏Two built-in and one optional I/F
Bi-Directional Parallel Interface (IEEE-1284 nibble mode)
Serial Interface
Type-B Interface (Option)
The exterior view of DLQ-3000 (MINERVA+) is the same as DLQ-3000 (MINERVA).

1.2 INTERFACE OVERVIEW
The printer provides an 8-bit Bi-directional parallel interface and serial interface as standard. Moreover, it is
possible to interface to various computers using the optional type-B interface board. This section describes
the specifications of the standard interfaces.
1.2.1 Parallel Interface Specifications
1.2.1.1 Forward Channel
Transmission mode: 8-bit parallel, IEEE-1284 compatible mode
Synchronization: By STROBE pulse
Handshaking: By BUSY and ACKNLG signal
Signal level: TTL-compatible level, IEEE-1284 level 1 device
Adaptable connector: 57-30360 (Amphenol) or equivalent
Data transmission timing: See Figure 1-1.
Note: Transition time (rise time and fall time) of every input signal must be less than 200 ns and
every output signal must be less than 120 ns.
The BUSY signal is at a HIGH level before either -ERROR signal is at a LOW level or the PE signal is at a
HIGH level until all these signals return to their inactive state. The BUSY signal is at a HIGH level in the
following cases:
- During data reception (see the figure above)
- When the input buffer is full
- When the INIT input signal is active
- During initialization
- When the ERROR signal is active
- In the self-test mode
- In the SelecType
- When the parallel interface is not selected.
The ERROR signal is at a LOW level when the printer is in one of the following conditions:
- Printer hardware error (fatal error)
- A paper-out error
- Release lever operation error
PE signal is at a HIGH level during paper out error.

Auto feed execution means that a line feed is
automatically performed upon input of a CR
code. Checked when the printer is initialized.
Active-LOW signal.
31 INIT 16 In Initialize printer. Minimum 50 µs pulse is
necessary. Active-LOW signal.
32 ERROR - Out A LOW level means that an error has occurred.
36 SLIN 30 In Not used.
18,35 Logic H - Out Pulled up to +5V and shorted to +5V via Schottky
diode, making these signals appear low to the
host when the printer is turned off.

1.2.1.2 Reverse Channel
Transmission mode: 8-bit parallel, IEEE-1284 nibble mode
Synchronization: Refer to the IEEE-1284 specification
Handshaking: Refer to the IEEE-1284 specification
Signal level: IEEE-1284 level 1 device
Data transmission timing: Refer to the IEEE-1284 specification
Extensibility request: the printer responds to the extensibility request in the affirmative, when the
request is 00H or 04H, which mean;
00H: Request nibble mode of reverse channel transfer
04H: Request device ID in nibble mode of reverse channel
