[Description] Transmits specified status in real-time as follows.
[Notes] This is a real-time command that the printer executes upon receiving it. Take the following into
consideration:
If this command interrupts the code string of another command, this command is processed as a
parameter of the other command; therefore, the print result will not be correct.
If a command such as graphic or defined data has a code string that is the same as a code string in a
parameter, the printer processes this command and then continues with the bit-image or other
command.
The status or response format is the same as the format of the related command in the table above.
See the description of the related command corresponding to m.
