■ ASB is the function that transmit the status of [cover open/close], [Online/Offline] from the printer
automatically. It is called [ASB function] and the status is [ASB status]. If you use ASB, application can
acquire the printer change in a real-time and passively.
■ Select any status enabled (except n = 0) and basic ASB starts. Then transmit the current basic ASB status.
After that, while ASB is active the selected enabled basic ASB status is transmitted whenever the status
changes.
■ When n = 0, basic ASB is disabled. When ASB is disabled, basic ASB status is not transmitted.
■ Multiple status items can be selected.
■ When ASB is active, ASB status is transmitted whenever the status changes even if ESC = is not selected.
■ This command setting is effective until ESC @ is executed, the printer is reset or power is turned off.
■ During Block data [header - NUL] transmission, ASB is disabled temporarily. Therefore you cannot get the
printer status change through ASB status when block data [header - NUL] is transmitted.

status items may change, because each status transmission represents the current status.
