4.2.1.2 Diagnostic Commander

The Diagnostic Commander takes the place of the Printer Controller
(CONTROLLER PWB) and controls the printer by sending and
receiving the data (commands and statuses) which is exchanged
between the CONTROLLER PWB and MCU PWB.
The Diagnostic Commander sends a diagnostic command to run the
diagnostics. The Diagnostic Commander can also send/receive a
command and status that are not the part of the diagnostics.
