Transmit printer ID, remote diagnostics extension
ASCII | GS I @ n |
Hexadecimal | 1D 49 40 n |
Decimal | 29 73 64 n |
Values of n: | Refer to table |
Range of n: |
Eighteen remote diagnostic items are defined in the following table: eight printer ID items and ten printer tally items. A group of four remote diagnostic functions is assigned to each diagnostic item. Most of the diagnostic items are maintained in
The first item group in the table includes an example of data to send and to receive. Data sent from the host to write to NVRAM must contain all digits required by the remote diagnostic item. All data must be ASCII. The printer returns all ASCII data. It is preceded by the parameter n to identify the diagnostic item and is followed by a carriage return (0D) to signify the end of the data.
Each returned message is defined as: n + data + <CR>
The command performs the remote diagnostic function specified by n as described in the following table.
Value of n
ASCII | Hex | Dec | Remote diagnostic item | Function |
Space | 20 | 32 | Serial #, 10 digit ASCII | Write to NVRAM Example, send 14 bytes to printer: |
|
|
|
| GS I @ 0x20 1234567890 |
! | 21 | 33 | Serial # | Write to NVRAM, and print on receipt to verify |
|
|
|
| Example, send 14 bytes to printer: |
|
