Test print

Next, the wizard shows you the proposed settings for the first test print. These settings are generated based
on the information you have already given.

NOTE:

If you are an advanced user and the suggested settings do not meet your expectations, you can

select Advanced settings at any time and make manual changes. However, you are recommended to print
the first test print as an indication of overall performance on your substrate.

NOTE:

If you cancel the test print because you are experiencing substrate issues or print-quality issues

such as banding, consider modifying the substrate preset, following the guidelines provided in

Troubleshoot

substrate issues on page 253

and

Troubleshoot print-quality issues on page 265

.

When the test print has been made, the wizard asks you some questions about it.
