GS r n : transmit status
ASCII : GS r n
Hexadecimal : 1 D 72 n
Decimal : 29 114 n
n = 1,2,49,50
Transmits 1 byte of status data specified by n as follows
n = 1 or 49 paper sensor status
n = 2 or 50 drawer kick out connector status
When the paper roll end sensor detects a paper-end, the printer goes off-line and does not execute this command. Therefore, bits 2 and 4 do not transmit paper-end status.

DLE EOT n : Real time status transmission
ASCII : DLE EOT n
Hexadecimal : 10 04 n
Decimal : 16 4 n
1 ≤ n ≤ 4
Transmits the specified status in real time.
n = 1 transmit printer status
n = 2 transmit off-line status
n = 3 transmit error status
n = 4 transmit paper roll sensor status
