INTRODUCTION This manual contains information for the programming and operation of the High Speed Printer Subsystem for the UNIVAC 1108 Multi-Processor System. It is assumed that both the programmer and operator have sufficient background information on the Central Processor and Main Storage of the UNIVAC 1108 Multi-Processor System, and need only to be instructed in the use of the High Speed Printer Subsystem. Therefore, material already covered in the "UNIVAC 1108 Multi-Processor System Processor and Storage Reference Manual," UP-4053, will not be duplicated here. This manual is divided into three basic sections: • High Speed Printer Subsystem Description This section will acquaint the reader with the characteristics of the High Speed Printer Subsystem. • Programming This section supplies the user with the information required for programming for the High Speed Printer Subsystem. • Operation This section contains the information necessary for the operation of the High Speed Printer Subsystem. Referencing the programming section within this manual on a regular basis is unnecessary when appropriate software is available as an interface to the High Speed Printer Subsystem. UNIVAC 1108 UP-7509 HIGH SPEED PRINTER SUBSYSTEM 2 SECTION: 1 PAGE: 2. SUBSYSTEM DESCRIPTION 2.1. GENERAL The High Speed Printer Subsystem provides the UNIVAC 11 08 Multi-Processor System with an output printing unit which operates at a rate up to 922 lines per minute, printing single or multiple copies of data. Each line of output data may contain up to 132 printed characters. Printing operations occur on a request-acknowledge basis allowing the processor to attend to other processing functions while the printer is actually printing data. The High Speed Printer (Type 0755 or 0751 *) and the High Speed Printer Control Unit (Type 7299-03) comprise the printer subsystem for single printer applications. For the optional dual printer applications, the subsystem includes two High Speed Printers and both the Control Unit, Type 7299-03, and the Auxiliary Control Unit, Type 7299-04. Each control unit may be connected to either a normal or compatible I/O channel of the processor, or its logical equivalent (the Input/Output Controller or a Multiple Processor Adapter). Output information is routed by the processor through the Printer Control Unit to the Printer. The Printer Control Unit contains a 132-character core buffer for accumulating a full line of information before printing. The printer contains 63 printable characters - the 26 letters of the alphabet, the ten numerals, and 27 special characters. Different symbols may be factory-supplied upon order. The capabilities and salient features of the individual units of the Printer Subsystem are presented in Tables 2-1 and 2-2. • This manual deals primarily with the High Speed Printer, Type 0755. For subsystems equipped with the Type 0751 Printer, refer to Appendix A.

CONFIGURATIONS The basic configuration of the High Speed Printer Subsystem consists of one Printer Control Unit, Type 7299-02 and a Printer, Type 0755. Figure 2-1a shows the functional arrangement of the basic subsystem components (single printer). The printing capabilities of the subsystem can be expanded by the optional addition of the Auxiliary Control Unit, Type 7299-04, which allows the operation of two printers. Figure 2-1b shows the functional arrangement of the two-printer subsystem. Component requirements for both Printer Subsystems are summarized in Table 2-3.

Printer Subsystem Components 2.3. SUBSYSTEM COMPONENTS Subsystem components, described in the following paragraphs, include the High Speed Printer and the High Speed Printer Control Unit. 2.3.1. High Speed Printer, Type 0755 The High Speed Printer, Type 0755 (see Figure 2-2), is an "on-the-fly" impact printer. Its operation is based on a printer mechanism which consists of the following main parts: • rotating type drum, • printing actuators and hammers, • ribbon-transport mechanism, • paper-transport mechanism. Figure 2-2. High Speed Printer, Type 0755 UNIVAC 1108 UP-7509 HIGH SPEED PRINTER SUBSYSTEM 2 PAGE: SECTION: 5 Figure 2-3 shows the general relationship of the parts of the printer mechanism. TYPE DRUM RIBBON \-4--- l-4_ _ SUPPL Y TAKEUP MANDREL ~ PAPER FEED DIRECTION Figure 2-3. Printer Mechanism The type drum is a cylinder with raised printing surfaces around its circumference. The individual characters of adjacent positions are staggered and form a checkerboard pattern on the type drum to prevent smudging or partial printing of adjacent characters. Table 2-4 shows the printed characters and their corresponding octal codes. As the type drum revolves, timing circuits control the action of each printing actuator and hammer. When the proper character is opposite the hammer, the hammer strikes the paper and pinches the ribbon between the paper and the type drum to print a character. The hammer plate and the paper transport are rigidly mounted to the frame of the printer. The type drum and the ribbon transport are in a movable carriage. The carriage moves in toward the hammer plate for printing, and out from the printing position for servicing. The space between the type drum and the hammers is adjustable, so that either single-thickness paper or multiple copy forms may be used. The ribbon-transport mechanism moves the ribbon in front of the type drum. When all but a short length of ribbon has been wound off the supply mandrel, the ribbon-transport mechanism automatically reverses and winds the ribbon in the other direction. The ribbon transport starts and stops the ribbon each time the paper is moved by the paper-transport mechanism. UNIVAC 1108 UP-7509 .

Processor Code/Printer Symbol Assignment The paper-transport mechanism feeds paper, a line at a time, under subsystem control. A maximum number of 63 lines can be fed for each print function. The mechanism consists of two sets of pin-feed tractors, adjustable for form width from 4 through 22 inches and for margin placement. The lower set of tractors draws pap,er from the supply container and passes it to the upper tractor. The tension of the paper between the upper and lower tractors is adjustable and does not vary with the weight of the paper stock. Printed pages pass from the upper tractors over guides and out the rear of the printer, where they are collected on a shelf. Controls on the printer control panels provide adjustment for proper printing placement, paper tension, and margin settings. UNIVAC 1108 UP-7509 HIGH SPEED PRINTER SUBSYSTEM 7 2 SECTION: PAGE: 2.3.2. High Speed Printer Control Unit The control unit (see Figure 2-4) governs all the operations of the High Speed Printer Subsystem. Its principal functions are: • to receive function words from the processor and translate them into control signals for the printer, • to synchronize the flow of data between the processor and the printer, • to accumulate a line of print in its buffer memory from the data transmitted by the processor, • to interpret signals, both normal and abnormal, from the printer and to notify the processor of printer and control unit conditions. Figure 2-4. High Speed Printer Control Unit 2.3.2.1. Buffer Memory The buffer memory used in the control unit is a random access, ferrite-core memory with a usable storage capacity of 132 seven-bit characterso Information is transferred between the processor and the Printer Subsystem in the form of 36-bit data words. Each such word is disassembled into six-bit characters and stored in the buffer memory until a full line of print (132 characters) is accumulated in the buffer memory. When a stop code or a Terminate function is received by the control unit, the number of data words necessary to fill the buffer memory is reduced. For example, the control unit automatically fills the remaining memory positions with a nonprintable code, on the receipt of a stop code. o c UNIVAC 1108 UP-7509 1 3 HIGH SPEED PRINTER SUBSYSTEM SECTION: PAGE: 3. PROGRAMMING 3.1. SUBSYSTEM/PROCESSOR INTERFACE Communications between the processor and the Printer Subsystem are over a pre-assigned input/output channel(s). Each channel contains 72 data lines (36 input and 36 output) and 6 control lines. The data lines provide for the parallel transfer of the basic UNIVAC 1108 processor word and the control lines provide various control signals that direct the communication between the processor and the control unites). 3.1.1. Communication Modes Each channel is capable of operating in three different communication modes: function, output, or input. The function mode is the means by which the processor establishes communications with the Printer Subsystem. During this mode of transmission, the processor sends a function word to direct the control unit to perform the desired operation. The output mode is employed when data is transferred to the processor and the input mode is used to transmit status information to the processor. 3.1.2. Control Signals Various control signals are provided to control and insure the orderly flow of information between the processor and the Printer Subsystem. These signals do not transmit data but are used to command and to identify the transfer of information words at the proper time and in the proper sequence. The control signals travel over the control lines of the channel(s) associated with the subsystem. A listing of these signals follows: C: • Output Request (OR) - indicates to the processor that the control unit will accept a function word or a data word that is to be printed. • External Function (EF) - indicates to the control unit that the processor has placed a function word on the output lines. • Output Acknowledge (OA) - indicates to the control unit that a word of data has been placed on the output lines. • External Interrupt (EI) - indicates to the processor that the control unit has status information on the input lines. • Input Acknowledge (I A) - indicates to the control unit that the processor has accepted the status word. • Master Clear (MC) - clears the control unit. UNIVAC 1108 HIGH SPEED PRINTER SUBSYSTEM UP-7509 3 SECTION: 2 PAGE: "·'·· C 3.1.3. Sequence of Operation C' The Printer Subsystem gives the program the capability of spacing paper the desired number of lines and printing one line or multiple lines of data. The Printer Control Unit conforms to the following sequences during its operation: • Function Handling - to receive, decode, and verify the legality of the function words that are transmitted by the processor. • Paper Spacing - to control the paper spacing operation of the printer as specified by the function word. • Data Handling - to receive and disassemble the data words into 6-bit characters for storage in the buffer memory until one full line of data is received from the processor. • Printing - to initiate printing when the buffer memory has been fully loaded and the paper spacing operation is completed. 3.2. WORD FORMAT The Printer Control Unit controls the operation of the Printer Subsystem through the following three types of 36-bit words: function words, data words, and status words. Each word type has its own format and each word is accompanied by a signal along one of the control lines to distinguish between the three types of words. Two of these (function word and data word) are processor-supplied words; the third (status word) originates in the subsystem. 3.2.1. Function Words The function word instructs the control unit to initiate a subsystem operation. The six high order bits (35 thru 30) specify the operation to be performed, while bit positions 23 thru 18 specify the line spacing count (0 to 63 lines inclusive) for print functions only. The format of the function word is shown in Figure 3-1, as follows: FUNCTION CODE 35 30 29 IGNORED BY SUBSYSTEM LIN E SPACING COUNT 24 23 18 17 IGNORED BY SUBSYSTEM 0 Figure 3-1. Function Word Format c: , UNIVAC 1108 UP-7509 HIGH SPEED PRINTER SUBSYSTEM 3 SECTION: 3 PAGE: The function repertoire of the High Speed Printer Subsystem consists of four functions as follows: • Print with Interrupt • Print without Interrupt • Terminate with Interrupt • Terminate without Interrupt Each of these functions is described in detail in the following paragraphs. 3.2.1.1. Print With Interrupt Function Code: 128 The Print with Interrupt function instructs the subsystem to space paper as defined by the line spacing count of the function word and to print a single line of data. Printing is initiated after both the line spacing and the data transfer are complete. Twenty-two data words are required to complete the data transfer for a full line of print (132 characters). The data transfer for a partial line of print is complete when either a Terminate function is received following the transfer of one or more data words or a stop code (a character code of all 1 bits) is detected within a data word, providing the 62 CHAR/63 CHAR switch on the Maintenance Panel is in the 62 CHAR (up) position. Upon successful completion of printing the line, a status word containing the Normal Completion status code (40) is generated by the control unit and the External Interrupt signal is turned on. The control unit does not turn on the Output Request signal following the receipt of the 22nd data word for the line, or following receipt of a data word containing a stop code (when conditioned for 62 CHAR operation) until after the processor has either acknowledged receipt of a Norm al Completion status code or sent a Terminate without Interrupt function to the subsystem. 3.2.1.2. Print Without Interrupt Function Code: 028 The Print without Interrupt function instructs the subsystem to space paper as defined by the line spacing count of the function word and to print ithout interruption, any number of equally spaced lines. Printing is initiated after both the paper spacing and data transfer are complete. Following receipt of the 22nd data word for a line, or the receipt of a data word containing a stop code (when conditioned for a 62 CHAR operation), the control unit does not turn on the Output Request signal until after the line has been printed without detection of an error, or after a Terminate function has been received and the control unit is ready to accept the next print function. UNIVAC 1108 UP-7s09 HIGH SPEED PRINTER SUBSYSTEM SECTION. " 3 4 PAGE. Upon completion of the first and each successive line of printing, the control unit retains the original function word with the same line spacing count and waits for the data for the next line of print. The Print without Interrupt operation can be ended by one of the following conditions: • Fault or abnormal condition • Terminate function c If a fault or abnormal condition is detected, the operation is concluded when the External Interrupt signal is turned on and a status code representing the fault or abnormal condition is generated by the control unit. Otherwise, the Print without Interrupt must be concluded by a Terminate function when the data in the output buffer has been exhausted. The processor can anticipate the completion of the last line of printing by selecting the monitor interrupt feature when setting up the output data buffer for a Print without Iilterrupt function. When the control unit requests another data word after receiving the last data word in the output buffer, the Output Monitor Interrupt will occur. The program should then terminate the Print without Interrupt function. It is recommended that the Terminate with Interrupt function be used so the program will be informed when the Print without Interrupt function has been completed and the subsystem is ready to accept another print function. 3.2.1.3. Terminate With Interrupt Function Code: 338 The Terminate with Interrupt function instructs the subsystem to conclude the function currently being performed by the subsystem and to establish readiness for another function. It may be issued by the processor at any time and brings about an orderly stop without the loss of data. The Terminate with Interrupt function will normally result in the External Interrupt signal being turned on and the transmission of a status word containing the Normal Completion status code (40). C If a Terminate with Interrupt function is received following one or more data words for either print function, the response to the Terminate function will occur after the words are printed. If an Interlock condition is detected, it will be reported immediately and replace the Normal Completion status code. Likewise, the Out of Forms condition will take precedence over the Normal Completion status code. In the event that the Terminate with Interrupt function is received before a word of data is received by the control unit, the termination will take place as follows: • If terminated within 6.5 microseconds of the receipt of the current print function, paper spacing is inhibited and the External Interrupt signal is turned on and the Normal Completion status (or Interlock, if appropriate) code is generated within .5 microseconds . • If terminated 6.5 microseconds or more after the receipt of the current print function, the External Interrupt signal is turned on and the Normal Completion (or either Interlock or Out of Forms, if appropriate) status code is generated after paper spacing is completed. c UNIVAC 1108 UP-7509 HIGH SPEED PRINTER SUBSYSTEM (~ 3 SECTION: 5 PAGE: 3.2.1.4. Terminate Without Interrupt Function Code: 238 The Terminate without Interrupt function concludes the previous print operation. Depending upon conditions, termination takes place as follows: • If terminated within 6.5 microseconds of the receipt of a print function, paper spacing is inhibited and the OR signal is normally turned on within 1.8 microseconds to notify the processor that the'control unit is ready to accept the next function word. • If terminated 6.5 microseconds or more after the receipt of the current print function, the OR signal is normally turned on again after paper spacing is completed. • If one or more data words are received by the control unit, termination becomes effective after printing is completed and the OR signal is normally turned on to notify the processor that the control unit is ready to accept the next function word. If an Interlock or Out of Forms condition is detected during the execution of either print function, the condition is reported to the processor. If a Terminate without Interrupt is received before the processor acknowledges the Interlock or Out of Forms condition, the control unit's response to the Terminate without Interrupt function is to report the condition rather than to turn on the Output Request signal. ( The primary use of the Terminate without Interrupt function is to clear the control unit following receipt of a status word containing a status code other than the Norm al Completion status code. 3.2.2. Status Word The status word is generated by the control unit to indicate the detection and nature of special conditions in the subsystem. The status word is transferred to the processor over the 36 input data lines, accompanied by a signal on the external interrupt line to inform the processor that a status word is available. The status code occupies the six most significant bit positions of the status word with the two least significant bits of the status code always containing 0 bits. The remainder of the status word also contains 0 bits. The format of the status word is as follows: STATUS CODE 35 ZERO BITS-CAN BE IGNORED BY THE PROCESSOR 0 30 29 Figure 3-2. Status Code Format (/ UNIVAC 1108 UP-7509 HIGH SPEED PRINTER SUBSYSTEM 6 3 SECTION: PAGE: The Printer Subsystem can generate any of four status codes reflecting the detection of the following conditions: C - Normal Completions - Out of Forms - In valid Function - Interlock Fault Each of these conditions and the status codes associated with them are described in the following sections. 3.2.2.1. Normal Completion Status Code: 408 The Normal Completion status code is possible only as a response to Print with Interrupt (12) function and a Terminate with Interrupt (33) function and indicates to the processor the successful completion of these functions. When a Normal Completion status word is acknowledged by the processor, the control unit turns on the Output Request signal and is ready to accept and initiate the next print function. If a data word rather than a function word is received in response to this Output Request signal, the control unit ignores the data word and does not request another data word but remains ready to accept and initiate a print function. If a fault or abnormal condition occurs in the interval between receipt of a Terminate with Interrupt and the actual conclusion of a print operation, the fault condition takes precedence and_ the appropriate status code is presented to the processor. 3.2.2.2. Out of Forms Status Code: 448 The Out of Forms status code is generated by the control unit when the printer determines there is insufficient paper to print a maximum of 15 single-spaced lines at 6 lines per inch or. 20 single-spaced lines at 8 lines per inch (approximately 2.5 inches of paper). Th~ condition is detected only when there is a transition from paper to no paper during the paper spacing sequence for the printing of a line. The status code is made available to the processor upon completion of printing that line. When the processor acknowledge,s receipt of an Out of Forms status word, the control unit does not turn on the Output Request signal. Before the control unit can accept a new print function word, a Terminate function (23 or 33) must be issued. c ------------.-_._-- UNIVAC 1108 UP-7509 HIGH SPEED PRINTER SUBSYSTEM 3 SECTION: PAGE: 7 3.2.2.3. Invalid Function Status Code: 508 The Invalid Function status code informs the processor that either the function word received by the control unit specifies a function code not included in the subsystem repertoire, or a data word was received in response to an Output Request signal which was turned on following a Terminate without Interrupt function, or a print function was received by the control unit when it was not ready for a print operation. Anyone of these conditions causes the current function to be aborted and the External Interrupt and the Invalid Function status code to be presented to the processor immediately. When the processor acknowledges receipt of an Invalid Function status word, the control unit does not turn on the Output Request signal. Before the control unit can accept a new print function word, a Terminate function (23 or 33) must be issued. 3.2.2.4. Interlock Fault Status Code: 748 The Interlock Fault status code informs the processor that one of the following abnormal conditions has occurred in the printer: (- • Printer Power Fault • Paper Runaway (paper feed greater than 22 inches) • Ribbon Out • Cabinet Interlocks Open • Overheat • Carriage Out Manual intervention is required before further operations on the printer are attempted. When the control unit acknowledges receipt of an Interlock Fault status word, the control unit does not turn on the Output Request signal. Before the control unit can accept a new print function word, a Terminate function (23 or 33) must be issued. 3.2.3. Data Word The data word contains the information to be printed. After the function word is received and acted upon, data words are transferred from the processor to the subsystem. The data word is a 36-bit processor word. Characters within a series of data words are printed consecutively from left to right starting with the most significant character and ending with the least significant character. UNIVAC 1108 UP-7509 8 .3 HIGH SPEED PRINTER SUBSYSTEM SECTION: PAGE: 3.3. TIMING The variables which affect timing on the High Speed Printer Subsystem are described below. o 3.3.1. General Characteristics The increments of time which determine the printing speed upon receipt of a Print Function by the control unit are as follows: • Liile Spacing Sequence • Buffer memory loading sequence • Compare/print sequence • Processor/program response time 3.3.1.1. Line Spacing Sequence The control unit initiates the line spacing sequence when either form of print function is received. For the second or subsequent lines to be printed for a Print without Interrupt function, the sequence is initiated when the first word of data is received. A print function with no line spacing encounters a 19-millisecond delay before the line spacing sequence is considered complete. For a print function with line spacing, the time is dependent on the spacing count and the setting of the 6 LI/ 8 LI (6-LINES/8-LINES) switch on the printer. Table 3-1 lists the time required for completion of the line spacing sequence for various line spacing parameters. LINE SPACING COUNT 0 MILLISECONDS AT 6 LINES PER INCH 19 MILLISECONDS AT 8 LINES PER INCH 19 1 19 19 2 27 23 3 35 29 *4 43 . 515 389 . 63 35 *Each additional line re{juires 8 milliseconds for 6 lines per inch spacing and 6 milliseconds for 8 lines per inch spacing. Table 3-1. Timing Requirements for the Line Spacing Sequence c UNIVAC 1108 UP-7509 HIGH SPEED PRINTER SUBSYSTEM 9 3 SECTION: PAGE: 3.3.1.2. Buffer Memory Loading Sequence This sequence is performed as follows: (1) The control unit turns on an Output Request signal asking for a data word. (2) The processor responds by sending a data word and an Output Acknowledge signal. (3) The control unit turns off the Output Request signal and stores each 6-bit character of the output data word in its buffer memory. For each character, an additional bit in the 7th level is stored in the buffer memory to indicate whether or not the character is to be printed. The 7th level will contain a 1 bit for printable characters and a 0 bit for all nonprintable characters. (4) The control unit cycles through these steps until it has stored the data from 22 words in its buffer memory or until it receives a data word containing a stop code. The buffer memory loading sequence is initiated following receipt of a print function word when the Output Request signal asking for the first data word is turned on (4 microseconds after the function is received). If a stop code is detected in a character of any data word, the buffer memory position corresponding to that character and all subsequen t buffer memory positions are padded out and include a 0 bit in the 7th level to indicate that a character is not to be printed for those positions. For the second and each subsequent line to be printed for a Print without Interrupt function, the buffer memory loading sequence is normally initiated one microsecond after completion of the compare/print sequence for the previous line. However, if the compare/print sequence for the first line is completed within 60 milliseconds of the receipt of the Print without Interrupt function, or the compare/print sequence for the second or a subsequent line is completed within 60 milliseconds of receipt of the first data word for that line, then initiation of the buffer memory loading sequence for the next line is delayed until the 60-millisecond delay timer has expired. It should be noted that if a Terminate function is received in lieu of the first data word for the second or a subsequent line while executing a Print without Interrupt function, the buffer memory loading sequence for that line is aborted and the Print without Interrupt function is considered complete. The buffer memory loading sequence is considered complete when: (1) data from 22 words have been stored in the buffer memory, or (2) the control unit finishes loading the buffer memory by padding it with nonp rin ta ble co des after: • C: detecting a stop code 778 in any character position of any word, UNIVAC 1108 UP-7509 HIGH SPEED PRINTER SUBSYSTEM 3 SECTION: 10 PAGE: • receiving a Terminate function in lieu of any data word for a Print with Interrupt function or for the first line to be printed for a Print without Interrupt function, or • receiving a Terminate function in lieu of the second or a subsequent data word for the second or a subsequent line for a Print without Interrupt function. o The time required for completion of the buffer memory loading sequence is dependent on how soon the processor responds to each request for an output data word. The minimum time required for completion is about 600 microseconds. The buffer memory loading sequence is normally overlapped by the line spacing sequence. 3.3.1.3. Compare/Print Sequence The printing of a line is started when both the line spacing and loading sequences are completed. The compare/print sequence is comprised of the following factors: ., synchronization of the control unit with the print drum. • comparison of each of the 132 codes stored in the buffer memory with each code read from the code wheel of the print drum . • determining whether or not all printable codes stored in the buffer memory have been printed. The print drum and code wheel tum at 922 revolutions per minute (65 milliseconds per revolution). The code wheel has the binary codes for 63 printable symbols equally spaced around its periphery with an interval of 1,033 microseconds between consecutive codes. Table 3-2 shows the sequence of the 63 printable symbols which appear on the standard print drum with the octal codes for each symbol. Each time a code is read from the code wheel, the buffer memory is scanned. A comparison is made between the code read and the contents of each of the 132 positions in the buffer memory which contain a 1 bit in the 7th level. For each position in which the compare equal is detected, the corresponding print actuator is fired and the position in the buffer memory is charged to a nonprintable code (7 level = 0 bit). During each scan a check is made to determine whether or not any printable codes (7th level = 1 bit) were read from the buffer memory. If no printable characters are recognized, the compare/print sequence for the line is considered complete. When the compare/print sequence is complete for a Print with Interrupt function, the status word is generated and the External Interrupt signal will be turned on within one microsecond after completion or 60 milliseconds after receipt of the print function, whichever is latest. If the status code is Normal Completion, the Output Request signal is turned on and the control unit is conditioned to receive the next function within one microsecond of the time the External Interrupt signal is acknowledged. 0 UNIVAC 1108 UP-7509 3 HIGH SPEED PRINTER SUBSYSTEM SECTION: 11 PAGE: When the compare/print sequence is completed for any line printed as a result of a Print without Interrupt function, the Output Request signal is normally turned on within one microsecond (subject to the 60-millisecond delay timer limitation) and the control unit is conditioned to receive the first data word for the next line to be printed.

Processor/Program Response Time The processor/program response time is the interval from turn on of the External Interupt signal until the time of receipt of the next print function by the control unit. It is significant in determining maximum printing rates. The processor/program response time can be affected in varying degrees by any of the following: • The delay encountered until the processor's priority circuitry permits recogni.tion of the External Interrupt signal. • Delays encountered while processing other higher priority interrupts or I/O operations. • Analysis of the status word received from the control unit. • Selection of the next print function and sending it to the control unit. 3.3.1.5. Printing Speed The variables which determine the time to print a series of lines are: • the line spacing sequence time • the buffer memory loading sequence time • the compare/print sequence time • the processor/program response time. The following example discusses these variables and calculates the number of sequential sym boIs which can be printed at 922 lines per minute: Assume that the Print with Interrupt (128) function specifying single line spacing is used, that the line spacing sequence overlaps the buffer memory loading sequence, and that the processor/program response time is 300 microseconds. To print at 922 lines per minute, a line must be printed for each revolution of the drum, (every 65.076 milliseconds). Subtracting 19 milliseconds for line spacing time; 300 microseconds for the processor/program response time, and 1,033 microseconds (the time for completion of the compare/print sequence); leaves 44.743 milliseconds for all but the final scan cycle of the compare/print sequence. Dividing this value by the 1,033 microseconds, the time required for each scan cycle, the result is slightly more than 43. Printing can proceed at 922 lines per minute using Print with Interrupt functions when the characters to be printed on each line fall within a consecutive range of 43 out of the 63 characters on the print drum. 12 o UNIVAC 1108 UP-7509 3 HIGH SPEED PRINTER SUBSYSTEM SECTION: 13 PAGE: Table 3-3 shows the range of characters permitted on each line to maintain a 922 lines per minute print speed for various line spacing parameters based on the above assumptions. The formula* for calculating additional entries in Table 3-3 is: N = 64.043 - (LSST + P /PRT) 1.033 N = allowable character range (within the 63 character set) where: LSST = the line spacing sequence time in milliseconds P /PRT = the processor/program response time in milliseconds For printing the full range of 63 characters on each line, the formula for the calculation of approximate print speed in lines per minute is: S = 60,000 LSST + P/PRT + 66.626 LINE SPACING PARAMETER 6 LINES PER INCH SINGLE SPACING 43 43 DOUBLE SPACING 35 37 TRIPLE SPACING 27 31 8 LINES PER INCH Table 3-3.

OPERATION 4.1. OPERATOR'S RESPONSIBILITIES The Printer Subsystem operator is responsible for the following: • Turning on and turning off the subsystem as required. • Observing and responding to indications appearing on the various operator control panels described in this section. • Performing the maintenance procedure described in this section. • Seeing that the environment inside the room containing the subsystem is within the specifications given in B3. Any deviation from these specifications may lead to a decrease in system reliability. 4.2. CONTROLS AND INDICATORS Controls and indicators on the components of the High Speed Printer Subsystem are described in the following paragraphs. 4.2.1. Printer The Printer is equipped with two control panels: the Operator's Control Panel, which permits monitoring of the operations of the printer and physical adjustment of the printer mechanism and paper-transport mechanism, and the Power Control Panel, which provides voltage overload protection for the printer. There is also a switch, located within the printer cabinet, for controlling line spacing. UNIVAC 1108 2 4 HIGH SPEED PRINTER SUBSYSTEM UP-7509 SECTION: PAGE: 4.2.1.1. Printer Operator's Control Panel The Printer Operator's Control Panel is divided into two separate panels: the Left-hand Control Panel (Figure 4-1) and the Right-hand Control Panel (Figure 4-2).

Each item on the control panel is described in Table 4-3. 4.2.1.3.6-Lines/8-Lines Switch Located inside the upper panel on the left-hand side of the printer is the 6 LI/ 8 LI toggle switch. This switch controls the number of vertical spaces per inch (6 lines or 8 lines) to be used during a print operation. c UNIVAC 1108 UP-7S09 4 HIGH SPEED PRINTER SUBSYSTEM SECTION: a. Switch/Indicators MARKING FUNCTION COLOR AC DC White Alternate-action switch with a split indicator. Permits initial turn-on sequence when the main circuit breaker is closed. Operation of the switch causes the AC section to light and initiates the turn-on sequence. When the low voltage DC is stabilized, the DC section is lighted. Depressing the switch when both sections are lit turns off DC power. READY Green Momentary-action switch. When indicator is lit, printer is ready for use. If the READY indicator is extinguished, the printer is not ready for use. When a fault (Interlock, Power Fault, etc.) occurs, manual intervention must be exercised. After correction of fault, depression of the READY switch should make the printer available to system and light the READY indicator. b. Knobs and Rocker Pushbuttons TYPE FUNCTION FORM THICKNESS Knob Adjusts distance between print head and print drum. Rotate dial counterclockwise to accommodate increased form thickness. This adjustment varies position of carriage stops and must be done with carriage in the "out" po sition. LINE POSITION Knob Adjusts vertical position of a preprinted form with respect to the print line (printer hammer line). Rotate dial clockwise to raise the preprinted form with respect to print line. Rotate dial counterclockwise to lower the preprinted form. This adjustment may be made while printer is in operation and may be varied until desired positioning is achieved. FORM TENSION Knob Adjusts vertical tension on paper. Turn knob clockwise to increase tension; turn knob counterclockwise to decrease tension. The carriage must be out. PRINT DENSITY Fourposition rotary switch Four-position switch that may be set according to the desired print density. The density should be increased as the num ber of print copies increases. Rotating the switch clockwise causes the print hammers to move faster and strike harder. MARKING Table 4-1.

Control Unit's Maintenance Panel The Control Unit's Maintenance Panel, shown in Figure 4-5, is primarily of significance to the Univac Field Engineer, permitting him to control and observe certain subsystem operations. The panel is located behing the back cover of the control unit. Two toggle switches (62 CHAR/63 CHAR and PTR) and two pushbutton switches (POWER CONTROL - OFF and ON) located at the bottom right side of this panel may be of significance to the operator. The functions of the switches are as follows: 62 CHAR/63 CHAR: In the 62 CHAR position, the 05 8 and 778 codes are nonprintable. The 778 code is defined as a stop code which causes all characters which follow it to be nonprintable. The 62 CHAR position is normal. The 63 CHAR positio~ permits operating with the 058 code as the only nonprintable code. POWER PTR/OFF switch: This switch should always be in OFF (down) position. POWER CONTROL/OFF and ON: These switches control the AC power applied to the control cabinet. (: Figure 4-5. Control Unit's Maintenance Panel UNIVAC 1108 UP-7509 HIGH SPEED PRINTER SUBSYSTEM 10 4 SECTION: PAGE: 4.3. SUBSYSTEM OPERATION The following paragraphs describe the turn-on, turn-off and paper loading procedures for the subsystem. c 4.3.1. Turn-On Procedure Before initiating the procedure for turning on the subsystem, the condition of the lSI (local/remote) switch located on the printer and that of the PTR switch on the control unit must be determined. It is recommended that the conditions of these switches satisfy local turn-on and subsystem power be turned on at each unit. For local turn-on, the recommended procedure is as follows: 4.3.1.1. On The Control Unit Before turning on the control unit make certain that all cabinet panels are in place, all interlocks are closed and that maintenance work is not being done on the unit. (1) If conditions are normal, ensure that the PTR switch, located on the Maintenance Panel, is in the OFF (down) position. (2) Place the 62 CHAR/63 CHAR switch, located on the Maintenance Panel, in the desired position. (3) Depress the POWER CONTROL ON switch. The OFF SWITCH indicator located on the Operator Panel will light green. 4.3.1.2. On The Printer Before attempting to turn power onto the printer, make certain that all cabinet panels are in place and closed, the interlocks are closed, and maintenance is not being done on the unit. (1) If prepower conditions are normal at the printer, only the POWER FAULT indication is lit on the Diagnostic Panel. (2) Depress the AC/DC switch/indicator on the Left-hand Control Panel. If the AC indicator does not light immediately, check the circuit breaker panel on the rear of the printer. (3) If a circuit breaker opens, its associated button on the circuit breaker panel pops out. Depress the circuit breaker button to reset the circuit breaker. (4) If the DC portion of the AC/DC switch/indicator does not light, remove the rear paper guide, the paper-storage tray, and the guide adjusting bar from the rear of the printer. Open the access panel and locate the DC circuit breaker. The lCBl circuit breaker .switch should be in the up position as shown in Figure 4-3. c UNIVAC 1108 UP-7509 HIGH SPEED PRINTER SUBSYSTEM 11 4 SECTION: PAGE: CAUTION If any circuit breaker cannot be reset or if, when reset, the fault persists, call a Univac Field Engineer. (5) When the circuit breakers are all reset, close all the cabinet panels and again depress the AC/DC switch. (6) If there are no further faults, the AC and DC indicators light and after a 45second delay, the READY indicator lights automatically. If the FORMS OUT fault indicator is lit, a new paper form must be loaded before operation. 4.3.2. Turn-Off Procedure The procedure for turning off the subsystem involves taking the necessary precautions to insure that no print operations are in progress and then remove power from the units in the following sequence: - Printer: Depress AC/DC switch, located on Left-hand Control Panel, indicator extin guishes. - Control Unit: Depress OFF switch, located on Operator Panel, lights red. indicator 4.3.3. Paper Loading Procedure (1) Depress the OFF LINE switch/indicator (indicator lights) so that the FORM ADV ANCE switch can be activated. (2) Depress the CARRIAGE OUT rocker pushbutton. Raise the transparent top cover and lift the retaining clamps on both sides of the form. (3) Lift the old paper off the sprockets and slide it through to the rear of the printer. (4) If forms of the same width are to be loaded and the print line is not shifted right or left, ignore steps 5, 6, 8, 9, and 10 for releasing and repositioning the tractor locks. If forms of different widths are to be loaded, release the top tractor locks on the Type 0755 Printer and/or the top and bottom tractor locks on the Type 0751 Printer. (5) Depress the rocker pushbutton labeled BOTH on the Right-hand Control Panel away from the BOTH position to uncouple the tractor control knobs. (6) Position the tractor locks by means of the left and right tractor knobs on the Right-hand Control Panel so that they are spaced approximately the width of the form to be loaded.

Controls and Indicators Controls and indicators on the components of the Type 0751 Printer are described in the following paragraphs. A2.1.1. P rin ter The Type 0751 Printer is equipped with two control panels; the Operator Control Panel, which permits monitoring of the operations of the printer and physical adjustment of the printer mechanism and paper-transport mechanism, and the Power Control Panel which provides voltage overload protection for the printer. A2.1.1.1. Printer Operator's Control Panel The Printer Operator's Control Panel is divided into two separate panels: the Right-hand Control Panel (Figure A-I) containing seven indicator switches, three toggle switches, two control dials, and eight indicating lamps (mounted on a smaller panel, called a Diagnostic Panel); and the Left-hand Control Panel (Figure A-2) containing four manual controls. Tables A-2 and A-3 give a description and operational summary of the items on both panels.

Switch/Indicators (~ MARKING COLOR FUNCTION POWER ON STANDBY WHITE Alternate-action switch with split indicator. The STANDBY section is illuminated when DC power is applied to the printer. Depressing switch lights POWER ON portion of the indicator and initiates the PQwer sequence on the printer. When the sequence is complete, the READY indicator lights. Depressing the POWER ON/STANDBY switch when both indicators are lit causes AC power to be removed from the printer; the POWER ON indicator is extin guished. READY GREEN Momentary-action switch. When indicator is lit, printer is ready for use. If the READY indicator is extinguished, the printer is not ready for operation. When a fault, (Interlock, Power Fault, etc.) occurs, manual intervention must be exercised. After correction of fault, depression of the READY switch should make the printer available to system and light the READY indicator. SYSTEM START GREEN Not operational on this subsystem. OFF LINE WHITE Alternate-action switch for activating FORM ADVANCE circuitry. Printer is operational regardless of the position of this switch. MANUAL PRINT WHITE Not operational on this subsystem. SYSTEM STOP RED Not operational on this subsystem. RIBBON CHANGE WHITE Alternate-action switch. Depressing switch lights indicator and causes ribbon to stop after it has reached maximum wind-up position on upper mandrel at which time the printer goes to a nonready condition. Depression of lighted RIBBON CHANGE switch and READY switch, in that order, extinguishes RIBBON CHANGE indicator, lights READY indicator, and restores printer to ready condition.

Knobs and Rocker Push buttons MARKING LEFT TRACTORS TYPE Knob FUNCTION A mechanical control which enables operator to adjust printer to take forms of various widths. When operated, it will move both upper and lower left-hand tractors. Clockwise rotation moves tractors to the right and counterclockwise rotation moves tractors to the left. NOTE: Tractor locks must be released by pressing them in toward the tractor shafts before attempting to position the tractors. BOTH Rocker Pushbutton Two-position switch. When set in BOTH position, permits both sets of tractors (left and right) to be moved simultaneously with either dial. When set away from BOTH position, permits individual tractor adjustment. RIGHT TRACTORS Knob Similar to LEFT TRACTORS dial except that control is maintained over the right set of tractors after the locks are released and the BOTH switch is off. CARRIAGE IN/Rocker CARRIAGE Pushbutton OUT FORM ADVANCE CONTINUOUS/ SINGLE LINE Rocker Pushbutton A two-position switch. Setting this switch in the CARRIAGE OUT pOSition will cause the carriage to move away from the paper and the READY indicator will be extinguished. Setting this switch in the CARRIAGE IN position will cause the carriage to move to printing position. A momentary-action rocker-type switch pivoted at its center. Used to manually advance paper when OFF LINE indicator is lit. Pressing switch below center (SINGLE LINE) causes paper to be advanced one line. Pressing switch above center (CONTINUOUS) advances paper continuously until switch is released. The switch returns to the center position when released. Do not activate during print operation.

Indicators* MARKING 5 Appendix A HIGH SPEED PRINTER SUBSYSTEM FUNCTION CARRIAGE OUT Lights when carriage is out. Extinguishes when carriage is moved in. POWER FAULT Lights to indicate DC fault. After correction of fault, the printer is ready after a 45-second timing cycle. FORMS RUNAWAY Lights whenever there has been 22 inches of continuous paper feed without an intervention. After the fault has been corrected, the READY switch must be depressed to clear indicator and make the printer ready. FORMS OUT Lights when there are 2.5 inches of paper remaining below print head. When condition has been corrected, printer will become ready. When READY switch is depressed, the FORMS OUT indicator will be extinguished. INT'L'K Lights to indicate printer interlock is open. This safety device automatically opens the AC supply circuit whenever a cabinet panel or upper carriage cover is opened. It is extinguished when the cause for the interlock opening is corrected or when the interlock is defeated. The printer becomes ready after 45-second timing cycle. RIBBON OUT Lights after depression of RIBBON CHANGE switch and when ribbon is just switching from upper take up mandrel and preparing to wind down onto lower mandrel. After ribbon has been changed, RIBBON CHANGE switch must be pressed to clear indicator. Press READY switch to restore ready condition. OVER HEAT Lights to indicate excessive temperature or air flow failure. Correct the fault and printer becomes ready after 45-second timing cycle. CODE WHEEL Not operational on this subsystem. *Since the indicators on the Type 0751 Printer are the same as the Type 0755 Printer but positioned differently, the operator procedures for printer fault corrections listed in Table 4-5 also apply to the Type 0751 Printer.
