TESTING THE PRINTER
(OFFLINE)
At this point, load paper and run the printer self-test. The self-test checks
printer performance and print quality before you connect the printer to the
computer. Use either single sheets or continuous forms (see Chapter 3). This
section describes the self-test procedure using single sheets.
Loading Paper for the Self-Test
To print the self-test, use paper wider than 215.9 mm (8.5 inches) and set the
left paper guide all the way to the right to avoid clipping the test pattern.
Standard letter or A4 size paper can be used
lengthwise
(portrait mode).
Before loading paper, make sure that the printer is on. Then, proceed as
follows:
1. Make sure that the paper thickness lever (located on the top right of
the printer) is at position 1. Make sure that the paper select lever
(located on the top left of the printer) is set to the front, as shown
below.
