decimal: 27 35 115 n
hexadecimal: 1B 23 73 n
Comment:
n = 0 disables the automatic standby mode.
n > 0 enables automatic standby mode, where “n” ranges from 1 to 25 and repre-
sents the time in seconds where the printer is inoperative before entering the standby
mode (default time = 20 seconds).
In the standby mode the current drain is reduced by half by disabling all the circuitry
not involved with receiving data from the computer.
