[Notes]
This is a status request command to determine if the printer is off-line or if
an error condition has occurred. Take the following into consideration:
• If this command interrupts the code string of another command, this
command is processed as a parameter of the other command;
therefore, the print result will not be correct.
• If a command such as graphics data or defined data has a code string
that is the same as a code string in a parameter, the printer processes
and then continues with the bit-image or other command.
• This command following DLE can be executed in real-time command
mode.
This command is ignored when transmitting block data (Header ~ NUL).
