3.5 FINAL TESTING
After having connected the printer to the system and checked the interface parameters.
The PR2 is equipped with resident tests that are useful for checking the outcome of ordinary
maintenance interventions:
- Print test. With the printer cover open, power on the PR2 while holding down the STATION 2 key.
At the end of the reset routine the READY LED will remain on, in which case close the cover and
insert a sheet of A4 paper (self-test printing). When the sheet is ejected from the printer, press the
LOCAL and STATION 1 keys simultaneously, load a sheet of A4 paper and then run a "German
letter" print test to check the print quality.
- RUN-IN test. With the printer cover open, power on the PR2 while holding down the STATION 2
key. At the end of the reset routine the READY LED will remain on, in which case close the cover
and insert a sheet of A4 paper (self-test printing). When the sheet is ejected from the printer, press
the LOCAL and STATION 1 keys simultaneously (RUN-IN test). This test lasts approximately 45
minutes and vertical bars are printed. In this test mode, the efficiency of the machine's mechanics
and electronics is tested, just like at the factory.
3.6 INFORMATION FOR THE OPERATOR
After installation the Technician will give the Operator some information on how to operate the
machine, replace cartridges and remove jammed paper without problems. It is recommended that
a practical demonstration is given for the following operations:
- How to use the console. Interpretation of error messages and, where it is possible, how to release
the machine (2.2).
- Inserting passbooks and documents into the feeder, underlining the importance of avoiding the use
of crumpled or torn documents, or with jutting spines. Show how to insert the paper (automatic
alignment) and of the passbook (manual alignment).
- Replacing the ribbon cartridge.
- Removing a jammed document from the machine using the mechanical lifting levers.
- Inserting a check or tab in the check reader making sure to avoid using documents that are not torn,
wrinkled, folded, stapled or with paper clips.
Underline the importance of a good internal ventilation and therefore the need to keep the printer vents
free from papers and documents.
Remember that observing these simple precautions ensures good printer functioning. However,
should faults occur, call the servicing engineer without wasting time.
