Self Test
The self-test mode checks the printer’s control circuit functions, setup
parameters, software version, and print quality.

the test (18" [46 cm]); the paper cover is closed; and that the printer is
switched OFF.
2. With the printer initially switched OFF, press and hold down the FEED
pushbutton, and then switch ON the printer to begin the test.
Note: The test can be aborted by switching OFF the printer.
