The printer has a power-off timer to conserve battery life. After a specified
period of inactivity occurs, the printer goes into sleep mode. You can
specify the length of this period. The printer returns to normal mode when it
starts receiving commands again.

seconds).

ESC-'M'--

carriage return character (CR).

and

0-9

The number of seconds to set the timer
to. To disable the timer, set both
parameters to 0.

Be careful when using buffer

buffer when the printer goes into

sleep mode, you will lose that

data.
