; when
automatic line feed is disabled, this command is ignored.

[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: Continuous paper sensor status
n = 5: Paper sensor status
n = 100: Low byte (BL) of thermal head temperature
n = 101: High byte (BH) of thermal head temperature
[Notes]
The status is transmitted whenever the data sequence 16, 04, n (1
≤
n
≤
5) is
received.
The printer transmits the current status. Each status item is represented by one
byte.
The printer transmits the status without confirming whether the host computer can
receive data (in serial interface).
The printer executes this command upon receiving it.
This command is executed even when the printer is offline, the receiver buffer is
full, or there is an error status with a serial interface model.
Thermal head temperature (ºC) is transmitted in two bytes and multiplied x 10. For
instance, if BL = 35H and BH = 02H, head temperature is (235H): 565/10 = 56.5ºC
