Bit 3:
If these errors occur due to paper jams or the like, it is possible to recover by correcting
the cause of the error and executing
DLE ENQ
n
(1
≤
n
≤
2). If an error due to a
circuit failure (e.g. wire break) occurs, it is impossible to recover.
Bit 6:
When printing is stopped due to high print head temperature until the print head
temperature drops sufficiently or when the paper roll cover is open during printing, bit 6
is On.
