QMS PS 410, User Manual

Page: 43 / 288

Moving the lever toward the display panel side of the printer
darkens print. Moving the lever away from the display panel
side lightens it. The lever has four settings from light to dark.
As you move the lever, it clicks at each of the two positions in
the middle. If you mainly print text, the lever should be set in
the middle. If you are printing pages with detailed graphics,
you may want to increase the print density.
Printing Diagnostics Pages
There may be times when you need to know the detailed status of
your printer. This information is available by printing a test
configuration page. The procedure below produces a test
configuration page. (A cleaning sheet is produced also. Discard
it—it is only needed when you install a new toner cartridge.)
1. If the Online indicator light is on, press the Online/Offline
button to take the printer offline.
2. Press the Test/Cancel button.
3. Press the Online/Offline button to put the printer back online.
In a few seconds, two pages print. The first page is the test
configuration page. (The second is the cleaning sheet.)
This test configuration page gives a complete report on the printer’s
current status. The page is divided into boxes and gives the
following information:
■ The product and printer name
■
Printer identification (version of PostScript) and the
number of pages printed to date
