2. Header -2
Header -2 is the 1 byte length information transmitted from the second byte of the automatic status. The table below
shows the composition of the Header -2.
Header -2 represents the automatic status version (called automatic status version below) using bit 1 to bit 3 and bit 5.
For reference, the table below shows the relationship of actual version bytes and the Header -2. The automatic status
version will be used as new information is added to the printer status bit positions that were empty, by adding new
functions in the future.
When the host does not control the automatic status version, it is acceptable to ignore Header – 2 received.
