TS2000 PRINTERS OPERATION MANUAL
Setting “No-event” associated to the digital output causes that the output will be enabled
immediately by the command while associating it to an event, such as near-end-paper
error, for instance, will cause that each time near-end-paper is detected, the digital
output will be enabled.
ton
and
toff
are the time the digital output is in on or off estate respectively. The time
unit is 0.01seg. The examples below shows how it look like different output signals with
the parameters on the right-side.

[Notes]
In order to disable an output associated to an event, the same command must be sent
specifying the event in the
m
parameter but setting
ton
and
toff
to 0.

[Description]
Transmits the selected printer status specified by
n
in real-time, according to the
following parameters:
n
= <01>H: Transmit printer status
n
= <02>H: Transmit offline status
n
= <03>H: Transmit error status
n
= <04>H: Continuous paper sensor status
n
= <05>H: Paper sensor status
[Notes]
●
The status is transmitted whenever the data sequence <10>H<04>H<
n
>
( <01>H
≤
n
≤
<05>H) 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.
