[Caution] • Under DTR/DSR control, the printer sends the printer ID after
verifying that the host is ready to receive. If the host is not
ready to receive, the printer waits for the host to become ready
to receive.
• Under XON/XOFF control, the printer sends the printer ID
without checking whether the host is ready to receive or busy.
• Because this command is executed when data is mapped in
the receive buffer, there may be a delay between command
receiving and printer ID sending depending on the condition
of the receive buffer.
• If ASB (Automatic Status Back) is enabled by GS a, the host
must discriminate between the printer ID due to this command
and the status due to ASB.
