settings, or clear the input buffer.
Side Effects
DECSTR resets Printer Status Report (DSR) events, including
communication failure and input buffer overflow.
The printer performs a conditional Form Feed.

Notes to Software
It is recommended that you send this command with no parameter.
Although the DEC PPL3 parsing rules allow a parameter in any
sequence, this sequence is traditionally sent without one. Older
Digital printers may not accept the 0 parameter.
