[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.
