Receipt Paper Out Sensor
The paper out sensor in the Series 150 Printer, senses when the paper is exhausted. When
the printer generates a paper out fault, the printer stops printing and goes off-line. If the
printer is off-line, inquires may not be accepted. To prevent the printer from going off-line
when paper out is sensed, you can send an [ESC] 8.
