Status transmission must be enabled by the US S +n command before any STATUS transmission will occur in IEEE-1284 mode. In case of an ERROR as defined in the table below, the printer transmits DLE E and the 2 status bytes. The response to a STATUS REQUEST is to transmit DLE (10hex) followed a SOURCE byte that distinguishes what type of status is being transmitted followed by the two status bytes as defined in the table below.
