n ≥ 65: When send printer information (character string) is specified, the
printer sends the “Header to NUL” character string.
Notes for the printer information:
• • Each printer information is composed of [header + printer information +
NUL] (when n ≥ 65).

• If the printer information is not prepared, [Header + NUL] (2 bytes) are
sent.
• Be sure to use this function when the host can receive data.
• When using GS I, GS ( E or GS g 2 together with Automatic Status
Back (ASB
status, the status transmitted must be differentiated according to table
Transmit Status Identification (see page 196).
• When n is out of the specified range, this command is ignored.
• The Firmware version may be changed.
• The firmware version can be confirmed by self test printing. Self test is
executed by panel switch operation when power is turned on.
• Printer information is distinguished from other send data by the header
of the block data. When the data sent from printer after printing GS I is
[Hex = 0x5F / Decimal = 95], process the data to NUL [Hex = 0x00 /
Decimal = 0].
• When communicating with printer by XON/XOFF control, XOFF code
might be transmitted into “Header to NUL.”
