Printing a Self Test

Running the printer's self test helps you determine whether the

printer or the computer is causing the problem:

If the self test results are satisfactory, the printer is working

properly and the problem probably results from your

printer driver settings, application settings, computer, or

interface cable. (Be sure to use a shielded interface cable.)

If the self test does not print properly, there is a problem

with the printer.

You can print the self test using either single sheets or

continuous paper of at least the following width:

Paper type

Continuous paper (including

perforated border)

Single sheet

Follow these steps to perform a self test:

1. Make sure paper is loaded and the printer is turned off.

2. To run the test using the Draft font, turn on the printer

while holding down the

using the printer's near letter-quality fonts, hold down the

button while you turn on the printer. Either self

Load/Eject

test can help you determine the source of your printing

problem; however, the draft self test prints faster than the

near letter-quality test.

After a few seconds, the printer loads the paper

automatically and begins printing the self test. A series of

characters is printed.

To temporarily stop the self test, press the Pause

button. To resume the test, press Pause again.

3. To end the self test, press the

printing. If paper remains in the printer, press the

button to eject the printed page. Then turn off

Load/Eject

the printer.

Do not turn off the printer while it is printing the

self test. Always press the Pause button to stop

printing and the Load/Eject button to eject the

printed page before you turn off the printer.

Printing a Hex Dump

The hex dump feature is designed for DOS-based PC

connections. If you are an experienced user or a programmer,

you can print a hexadecimal dump to isolate communication

problems between the printer and your software program. In

hex dump mode, the printer prints all data it receives from the

computer as hexadecimal values.

You can print a hex dump using either single sheets or

continuous paper that is at least 8.3 inches (210 mm) wide,

such as A4 or letter size paper.

1. Make sure paper is loaded and the printer is turned off.

2. To enter hex dump mode, turn on the printer while holding

down the

printer. Your printer prints all the codes it receives in

hexadecimal format, such as:

4. By comparing the characters printed in the right column

with the printout of the hexadecimal codes, you can check

the codes the printer is receiving. If characters are printable,

they appear in the right column as ASCII characters.

Nonprintable codes, such as control codes, are represented

by dots.

5. To turn off hex dump mode, press the

the printed page(s), and then turn off the printer.

Do not turn off the printer while it is printing the hex

dump. Always press the Pause button to stop printing

and the Load/Eject button to eject the printed page

before you turn off the printer.
