Command
* When automatic status transmission is not specified by the Data Print Command, the
issue end status is not sent. Therefore, check the printer status by transmitting the
Status Request Command. When the printer status is idling, the next command
should be sent.
• In the TPCL mode, when the automatic status response is selected, the host sends a response
when receiving an error, print end, or feed end status.
• In the RECEIPT mode, the host sends a status when receiving an error status, though there is
no automatic status response selection. To the print end and feed end statuses, the host does
not return any status.
• In the ESC/POS mode, the automatic status response cannot be selected. To the print end
and feed end statuses, the host does not return any status. (A response is made with the
Status Request Command only.)
