Control Codes

Remote Power Control

The Epic 880TM Printer has a remote power control command that instructs it to enter OFF mode. When the command is issued, the printer performs print cartridge maintenance and enters OFF mode. Unlike manually turning the power off, remote power mode leaves the communications active. All commands except the exit power down command are ignored.

Description Inquiry (ENQ) commands are accepted and answered in remote power down mode. The printer reactivates if a power up command is received or the power is cycled.

Note 1: If power is lost after the power down command is issued, the printer will reenter normal operation when the power is restored.

Note 2: This command is not available in all configurations mode.
