DLE EOT n

[Function]	Sending status in real-time
[Code]	<10>H<04>H<n>
[Range]	1 n 4
[Outline]	Sends in real-time the status specified by “n”.
	n = 1: Printer status
	n = 2: Status caused by an offline condition
	n = 3: Status caused by an error
	n = 4: Continuous paper detector status
[Caution]	• Each status represents the current status of the printer.
	• The status is transferred without checking whether the host is
	ready to receive or busy.
	• This command is executed even if the printer is in offline state,
	receive-buffer full state, or error state.
	• This command is dealt with when it is received.
	• If a data string of <10>H<04>H<n> (1 n 4) is present in the
	received data, the printer acts the same way as with this
	command. Therefore, the user should be reminded of this fact.
	[Example]
	ESC * mnL nH [d1 ... dk], where d1 = <10>H, d2 = <04>H,
	d3 = <01>H.
	• If ASB (Automatic Status Back) is enabled by GS a, it is
	necessary to discriminate between the status due to ASB and
	the status due to this command.
