3.11.3 Diagnostic Mode
The Diagnostic Mode temporarily powers up the printer using factory default parameters.
Also, the printer’s current user configuration parameters and statistical information are
printed out on a Status Label. This provides useful information to help diagnose and
troubleshoot problems. The printer will use the factory default parameters until the printer
has been reset using a soft reset or by cycling power. The printer will then return to the
configuration shown on the Status Label.

To enter the Diagnostic Mode, press and hold the Print Button “IN” while turning the printer
“ON.” Release the Print Button after printer light changes to green. The printer will enter
the DIAGNOSTICS Mode, and print the Statistics label and a print test pattern.
