[Function] Sets the ASB ETB status when reading this command from the reception buffer.
Then, after updating the ASB ETB counter, sends the ASB status.
See Appendix 2, ASB Status for details.
The following outlines the details of processes in this command.
(1) Reads ETB command from reception buffer.
(2) Waits for printing of the print data before the ETB command to end.
(3) Increments the ASB ETB counter by 1 after checking that printing has ended, then sets the ASB ETB
status.
(4) Sends ASB (only when ASB is enabled).
• Precautions when using Ethernet
When multi-session is valid the ASB (ETB counter) sent by <ETB> is sent to all hosts that are connected.
For that reason, sending ETB from multiple sessions, can cause mis-recognition of the ETB counter.
Therefore, we recommend the <ESC><GS><ETX> commands to confirm the print end counter.
See the Command List by Model.
