Pins 12 and 15 on the parallel port signals paper out and error. However, in an unattended kiosk you may not want this because it causes the host computer to stop communicating, and the operating system may display a banner on the kiosk screen.

By disabling the hardware signals, the kiosk software can for example use status commands to find out paper level and alert appropriate personnel when the level is low, then close the kiosk when paper is out.

<ESC>&P<5><0>

No, paper out and error signals are not disabled

<ESC>&P<5><1>

Yes, paper out and error signals are disabled

Note • When enabled, the hardware signal on pin 12 and 15 will block all communication until the error is corrected. This means that it will be impossible to ask for status.
