[Function]
Sending the printer status
[Code]
<1B>H <76>H
[Outline]
This command sends the printer status.
[Caution]
This command is valid only for the serial interface. The following table lists the
status sent. In case of DTR/DSR control, only one byte will be sent after
confirming that the host is ready to receive (DSR signal has the Space status).
The status at command processing time is sent after processing the data received
prior to this command. If the printing is under way when the command is being
processed, however, the then status will be sent after completing print feed of
that line. Therefore, it may take time to send the status after receiving the
command.
