323
Return status of Status 4 2.2.3
The printer returns the printer’s status and reply as the status by receiving 5 types of request commands and print command
with this communication protocol.
Details of request commands and return status are described below.
1) Status request command
The printer returns the job ID number of receive data that is currently printing, the printer status and the number of
the remaining labels to print to the host by receiving this command. Return all "0" (HEX 30H) as the print quantity after
printing is finished or there is no more receive data. If the job ID command is not specified, space (HEX 20H) is returned
as the job ID.
Avoid sending ENQ while sending the print data (STX <A> - <Z> ETX). This may cause return status error or print error.
