Printer self-test
(Rolling ASCII)
To check operational readiness, your printer contains a self-test routine
which allows testing of the printer configuration, the print quality and correct
operation of your printer.
Before performing a self-test, your printer must be switched off. Ensure that
paper and a ribbon are inserted. Keep the key Online pressed while switch-
ing on the printer for about three seconds.
Alternatively T2240/9 is displayed. For the wide printer the display offers you
the selection between ASCII 80 (80 ASCII characters are printed per line)
and ASCII 136 (136 ASCII characters are printed per line). For the narrow
printer , T2340/24 or T2340/9 is displayed and you can select ASCII 80 only.
Note that the selected function ASCII 80 or ASCII 136 must be suitable for
your paper size. If not the printer may suffer mechanical damage.
Press the respective soft key for the ASCII 80 format (corresponds to Legal
Portrait) or for ASCII 136 (Double or Legal Landscape). The display will indi-
cate Test mode Off.
