V. PRINTING A SELF TEST

Now that ribbon and cards are installed, a self test should be
performed to check for proper operation of the printer. The
standard self test function requires only that a full-color ribbon
and at least one card is installed. A sample of the self test
pattern is shown below.

1.

If power is ON, turn it OFF now by pressing the on/cancel
button. The LED indicator lights should no longer be
illuminated. Verify that a full-color ribbon is installed and
that cards are properly loaded.

2.

Press and hold the on-line button.

3.

While holding the on-line button down, turn the printer
power back ON by quickly pressing and releasing the
on/cancel button.

4.

Release the on-line button. The gray scale self test pattern
will begin printing approximately 10 seconds after the on-
line button is released.
