If an immediate return of printer status is desired, then any of the other status commands should
be issued following this command. Once this mode is activated, the printer automatically transmits
4 status bytes whenever any of the conditions change. If an RS-232C connection with hardware
flow control is used, all four status bytes will be transmitted without checking DSR.
This command is a POS version of general printer unsolicited status functions; it uses the same
command code as older versions of the POS command, “automatic status back (ASB)” but has the
following differences:
The parameter n is an on/off switch; it does not select trigger subset
There is no immediate return when this mode is turned on
All 4 status bytes are always returned
A change in any of the following conditions will trigger the USM response:
Cash Drawer
Receipt Cover
Knife Error
Out-of-Range Printhead Temperature
Out-of-Range Voltage
Paper Exhaust Status

When Unsolicited Status Mode is enabled using this command, the status transmitted by other
commands and the USM status are differentiated according to the information found in
Recognizing Data from the printer, which follows the USM return description.
The status bytes to be transmitted are described in the following four tables.
Byte 1 = printer information
Byte 2 = error information
Byte 3 = paper sensor information
Byte 4 = paper sensor information
First byte (Printer Information)
