Troubleshooting

Self Test:

The self test is activated by the following key sequence:

Refer to the Controls section for more information on keypad functions.

1. Press the “FEED” key
2. While still holding down the “FEED” key, turn on

the printer by pressing and releasing the “ON” key.

3. Continue pressing the “FEED” key until self test starts.

The Cameo will perform the self test and remain on.
The unit should print a line of interlocking “x” characters to

insure all elements of the printhead are working, print out the
version of software loaded in the printer and then print two re-
ports. The first report indicates model, ROM version, serial
number, baud rate, etc. The second report contains applica-
tion information. If no second report appears, there is no ap-
plication loaded.
