Running Test and Service Mode at the Printer

Note:

When the printer is placed in Test and Service mode, it prints out a hardware

configuration label, regardless of its initial DIP switch settings, and remains in Test
and Service mode until the power is switched off and the DIP switches are reset.
Momentarily pressing the Feed/Pause button during a test will cause the test to halt.
Holding the Feed/Pause button down will start a new run of whichever test you select.

To enter Test and Service mode and select test functions at the printer

1. Switch off the printer power.

2. Set the DIP switches to select the function that you want to run.

3. Press down and hold the Feed/Pause button while powering on the

printer. The printer prints out a hardware configuration label.

4. Hold the Feed/Pause button down for 1 second. The test begins

immediately.

5. If you wish to perform another function, repeat Steps 1 through 4. The

function currently being executed is terminated and the new function
begins.

To exit Test and Service mode

1. Switch off the printer power.

2. Return all DIP switches to their original settings.

3. Switch on the printer power.
