Description

1Sends the printer status.

2Sends the off-line factor status.

3Sends the error factor status.

5Sends the slip status.

[Caution]

• For the status sent, see the tables on the following pages.

 

• This command runs processing upon its reception.

 

• When sending the status, only one byte is sent without confirming the DSR signal status.

 

• The command is executed in the off-line state, reception buffer full state, and error state as

 

well.

 

• The user should note that the operation of this command is also executed when a data

 

sequence of <10>H<04>H<n> (1  n  3, n = 5) is received, other than this command.

 

<Example>

 

d1 = <10>H, d2 = <04>H, d3 = <1> in ESC * m nL nH [d]nL + 256 nH

 

• This command must not be used by interrupting the code sequence of other command

 

consisting of 2 bytes or more.

 

<Example>

 

If DLE EOT 3 is sent after sending up to ESC 3, attempting to send ESC 3 n from the host, it

 

will be processed as ESC 3 n = <10>H. Therefore, the use should take heed of this.

 

• If ASB has been enabled by GS a, it is necessary to distinguish the status by this command

 

from that of ASB. See “6. Interface” for how to distinguish them

 

• If n is beyond the range, this command will be ignored.
