In ESC m nL nH d1...dk, d1=<10>H, d2=<04>H, d3=<01>H
 Do not use this command within another command that consists of 2 or more bytes.
Example:
If you attempt to transmit ESC 3 n to the printer, but DTR (DSR for the host
computer) goes to MARK before n is transmitted and then DLE EOT 3
interrupts before n is received, the code <10>H for DLE EOT 3 is processed
as the code for ESC 3 <10>H.
 The printer transmits the current status. Each status item is represented by one-byte
of data.
 The printer transmits the status without confirming whether the host computer can
receive data.
 The printer executes this command upon receiving it.
 This command is executed even when the printer is offline, the receive buffer is full, or
there is an error status with a serial interface model.
 With a parallel interface model, this command cannot be executed when the printer is
busy. This command is executed even when the printer is offline or in error status, with
a parallel interface model.
 When Auto Status Back (ASB) is enabled using the GS a command, the status
transmitted by the DLE EOT command and the ASB status must be differentiated.
