Select paper sensors to output paper-end signals
ASCII ESC c 3 n
Hexadecimal 1B 63 33 n
Decimal 27 99 51 n
Value of n:
If either bit 0 or bit 1 is on, the paper roll near-end sensor is selected as the paper sensor outputting paper-end signals.
If either bit 2 or bit 3 is on, the paper roll-end sensor is selected as the paper sensor outputting paper-end signals.
Bit Position Hex Decimal Function
0 Off 00 0 Paper roll near-end sensor disabled
On 01 1 Paper roll near-end sensor enabled
1 Off 00 0 Paper roll near-end sensor disabled
On 02 2 Paper roll near-end sensor enabled
2 Off 00 0 Paper roll-end sensor disabled
On 04 4 Paper roll-end sensor enabled
3 Off 00 0 Paper roll-end sensor disabled
On 08 8 Paper roll-end sensor enabled
4, 5, 6, 7 – – – Undefined
Range of n: 1–255
Default of n: 12
Specifies the paper sensor to output a paper-end signal. Multiple sensors may be selected to signal when paper has run out.
When multiple sensors have been selected, anytime one of the sensors detects a paper-end, the paper end signal is output.
When this command is executed a sensor is switched. The paper-end signal switching is delayed depending on the receive
buffer state.
Exceptions
The command is ignored, except in parallel communications.
Select sensors to stop printing
ASCII ESC c 4 n
Hexadecimal 1B 63 34 n
Decimal 27 99 52 n
Value of n: Sensor status
Sensor Status
Bit Sensor 0 1
0 Receipt paper near-end Disabled Enabled
1 Receipt paper near-end Disabled Enabled
2–4 Undefined
6 Undefined
Bits 5 and 7 are not used.
Default: 0
Determines which sensor stops printing on the respective station. The command does not affect the paper out status on the
receipt station, which will automatically stop the printer when the paper is depleted.
