Transmit printer ID, remote diagnostics extension

ASCII GS I @ n

Hexadecimal 1D 49 40 n

Decimal 29 73 64 n

Values of n: Refer to table

Range of n: 32–255 (not all dened, but reserved)

Eighteen remote diagnostic items are dened in the following table: eight printer ID items and ten printer tally items. A

group of four remote diagnostic functions is assigned to each diagnostic item. Most of the diagnostic items are maintained

in non-volatile memory (NVRAM), but some are maintained in read-only memory (ROM).

The rst item group in the table includes an example of data to send and to receive. Data sent from the host to write to

NVRAM must contain all digits required by the remote diagnostic item. All data must be ASCII. The printer returns all

ASCII data. It is preceded by the parameter n to identify the diagnostic item and is followed by a carriage return (0D) to

signify the end of the data.

Each returned message is dened as: n + data + <CR>

The command performs the remote diagnostic function specied by n as described in the following table.
