3. The heat energy generated by the resistors is transmitted to the roll paper surface through
the protective layer to the paper’s heat sensitive layer, causing coloration of the paper.
Data input and printing
Serial print data input from DATA IN is synchronized with the clock, transferred to the shift
register, and the print data is stored in the latch in accordance with the latch signal. The stored
print data turns on the gate in accordance with the STROBE signal, which energizes the heating
element.
There are two strobe pins, STROBE 1 and STROBE 2, and the drive operation is divided between
them.
