Errors

Printing process in progress is indicated by the letter P on the left of the screen. The communication errors will be reported by letter E and number of the stage on which printing failed, followed by the returned status code. FF status code can mean timeout. On successfully completed print the preview screen will be cleared.

Protocol

The protocol is well documented at https://gbdev.io/pandocs/Gameboy_Printer.html. RLE compression is disabled as most of the emulators don't support it.
