A limited Power-On Self Test (POST) is performed automatically each
time the printer is turned on (additional self tests can be performed by
pressing the CANCEL and CALIBRATE keys when you turn the printer
on). During either test sequence, the front panel lights and liquid crystal
display (LCD) monitor the progress of the POST. If the printer fails any of
these tests, the word “FAILED” is added to the display. If this occurs,
notify an authorized Zebra reseller.

These self tests produce sample printouts and provide specific information
that help determine the operating conditions for the printer.
Each self test is enabled by pressing a specific front panel key or
combination of keys while turning the POWER switch on. Keep the
key(s) depressed until the DATA light turns off. When the power-on self
test is complete, the selected self test starts automatically.
NOTE: When performing self tests, avoid sending a label format to the
printer. In the case of a remote host, disconnect all data interface
cables from the printer.
When canceling a self test prior to its actual completion, always
turn the printer power off and then back on to reset the printer.
When performing these self tests while in the peel-off mode, you
must remove the labels as they become available.
If your media is not wide enough or long enough, unexpected
and/or undesired results may occur. Make sure that your print
width is set correctly for the media you are using before you run
any self tests, otherwise the test may print out on the platen roller.
See page 46 for information on setting the print width.
