(45) Sending the printer status (ESC v)
Code: [1B] h + [76] h + n
This command sends the current printer status.
•
The status sent is 1 byte. The contents are as shown in the following table.
•
In the case of DTS/DSR control, after confirming that the host is ready to receive
(the DSR signal is High), one byte only is sent. In the case of XON/XOFF control,
one byte only is sent without confirming the status of the DSR signal.
•
In the case of DTR/DSR control, if the host is not ready to receive (the DSR signal
is Low), it waits until the host is ready to receive.
