or until you press the Pause button. To stop the test, press
the Pause button. To resume the test, press the Pause
button again.
4. To end the self test, press the Pause button to stop printing.

If the self test results are satisfactory, this means that the
printer itself is all right and that the problem probably lies
in the printer software settings, application settings, the
interface cable (be sure to use a shielded cable), or the
computer itself.
