DLE EOT n

[Name]	Real-time status transmission
[Format]	ASCII	DLE	EOT	n
	Hex	10	04	n
	Decimal	16	4	n
[Range]	1 ≤ n ≤ 4

[Description] Transmits the selected printer status specified by n in real-time, according to the following parameters:

	n = 1: Transmit printer status
	n = 2: Transmit offline status
	n = 3: Transmit error status
	n = 4: Transmit paper roll sensor status
[Details]	• The printer transmits the current status. Each status is represented by one-byte data.
	• The printer transmits the status without confirming whether the host computer can receive
	data.
	• The printer executes this command upon receiving it.
	• This command is executed even when the printer is offline, the receive buffer is full, or there
	is an error status with a serial interface model.
	• With a parallel interface model, this command can not be executed when the printer is busy.
	This command is executed even when the printer is offline or there is an error status when
	DIP switch 2-1 is on with a parallel interface model.
	• When Auto Status Back (ASB) is enabled using the GS a command, the status transmitted by
	the DLE EOT command and the ASB status must be differentiated. (Refer to Appendix G,
	TRANSMISSION STATUS IDENTIFICATION)
	• Even though the printer is not selected using ESC = (select peripheral device), this command
	is effective.
[Notes]	• The status is transmitted whenever the data sequence of <10>H<04>H<n>
	(1 ≤ n ≤ 4) is received.
	Example:
	In ESC ∗ m nL nH d1...dk, d1=<10>H, d2=<04>H, d3=<01>H
	• This command should not be used within the data sequence of another command that
	consists of 2 or more bytes.
	Example:
	If you attempt to transmit ESC 3 n to the printer, but DTR (DSR for the host
	computer) goes to MARK before n is transmitted and then DLE EOT 3 interrupts
	before n is received, the code <10>H for DLE EOT 3 is processed as the code for
	ESC 3 <10>H.
