12. Test the Interface with the Computer

Test that the printer and computer are correctly connected. If you have connected the printer and
computer with a parallel interface cable, follow the procedure below.

1. Check that the printer’s message display indicates

Ready

and that the ON LINE indicator is

ON.

2. Boot the computer in DOS mode, or set the computer to DOS (prompt) MODE.

3. At the DOS prompt, type the following.

ECHO !R! STAT; EXIT; >PRN

If the printer prints a status page, the computer and printer are connected correctly. For details on
the status page, refer to Chapter 2.

If you do not get this result, check that the cable is securely plugged in at both ends, and repeat
the test. If you still do not get the right result, you may have a defective or improperly-wired cable.
Try using a different cable.
