TIP! – Mask away the undefined bits in your application program to avoid having to change
the application, if future firmware releases starts using them.
Mask first reply byte with E8h
Mask second reply byte with FBh

This bit indicates that a status code is available. Use <ESC><ENQ><1> or
<ESC><ENQ><E>
to fetch it.
**
This bit tells you that there are data in the printer that have not yet been printed.
There are two possible reasons for that:
1) The last command received by the printer was not a command that triggers a
printout.
2) The printer is printing.
***
When parallel cable is connected, both printer and host computer must have been
off to set this bit. This is because the interface powers the RAM in the printer.
****
Read external code with <ESC><ENQ><E>.
***** This paper-near-end bit differs from the <ESC><ENQ><2> response, see
.
