[Description] Transmits specified status in real-time as follows.
[Notes]
■ This is a real-time command that the printer executes upon receiving it. Take the following into
consideration:
• If this command interrupts the code string of another command, this command is processed as a
parameter of the other command; therefore, the print result will not be correct.
• If a command such as graphic or defined data has a code string that is the same as a code string in a
parameter, the printer processes this command and then continues with the bit-image or other
command.
■ The status or response format is the same as the format of the related command in the table above.
See the description of the related command corresponding to m.
■ Basic ASB status transmission has the following rules.
• This function makes the printer transmit the specified ASB to the host PC regardless of whether the
setting for ASB is enabled or disabled.
• This function doesn’t affect the setting of whether ASB is enabled or disabled.
■ Battery status differs depending on printer model.
