Test Prints
A variety of test prints are available to aid in determining the quality of output from the
printer and to assist in troubleshooting problems. Some test prints are available from the
System Controller Board and others from the Print Engine Controller Board This section
shows how to select and produce all test prints available.
Note
For assistance in analyzing print quality problems, please refer to
the Troubleshooting section of this manual, Image Quality
Problems on page 1-113.
System Controller Test Prints
The test prints available from the System Controller Board consist of a “Test Print” for
helping to evaluate print quality and alignment/registration. Other available prints provide
a printer configuration sheet, fault history, menu map, PS and PCL font lists, and a PCL
Demo page. Some of these test prints serve a twofold purpose by providing information
germaine to the printer and an indicator of measurable print quality.
Note
If multiple test prints are desired, enter the System Menu and
change “Print Quantity” value from 1 to the desired number.
Remember to reset the value back to 1 after checking/adjusting
registration.
Note
It is not necessary to take the printer “Off Line” to run the
following test prints. The [0] key takes the printer Off Line, if
needed and returns all modes, except Diagnostics, to “Ready.”
Configuration Sheet:
A printer configuration sheet can be used as an indicator of print quality, as well as
providing the user/technician with myriad of pertinent information regarding the printer’s
configuration. It is a good idea to print a configuration sheet and keep it close to the
printer for reference by users, technicians, and/or system administrators.
