2.1.1.2 Switching between on-line and off-line
The printer does not have an on-line/off-line switch. The printer goes off-line:
· Between when the power is turned on (including reset using the interface) and when the
printer is ready to receive data.
· During the self-test.
· When the cover is open (the cover for the paper sheet selected by
ESC c 0
).
· During paper feeding using the paper feed switch.
· When the printer stops printing due to a paper-end (only when the paper roll is not
present).
· When an error has occurred.
