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.
Even though the printer is not selected using
ESC =
(select peripheral device), this
command is effective.
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 off-line, the receive buffer is full, or
there is an error status with a serial interface model.
With a parallel interface model, this command is ignored.
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..
