[Description]

Transmits the status of paper sensor( s) as 1 byte of data

[Notes]

 

 

 

GS r 1 can also be used to check the status. GS r is recommended for transmitting the paper sensor status. ESC v is not a recommended command.

When DTR/DSR control is selected by DIP switch (Handshaking) with a serial interface, the printer transmits the status after confirming that the host is ready to receive data. If the host computer is not ready to receive data, the printer waits until the host becomes ready.

When XON/XOFF control is selected by DIP switch (Handshaking) with a serial interface, the printer transmits the status without confirming whether the host computer can receive data.

The peripheral device status to be transmitted is as follows:
