3. Diagnostic aids
This chapter explains the tests and procedures to identify printer failures and verify if repairs have corrected the
problem. The printer does not need to be connected to a computer or terminal to run these tests.
The tests include the following:
•
Power-on self test (POST)
•
Print test
•
Hex Trace mode (a computer or terminal is necessary)
The following are special machine modes that run when the printer is turned off and then back on:
Power-On Self Test (POST)
The following tests are automatically performed when the printer is turned on.
•
LEDs Test—Checks operation of LEDs on the operator panel. The LEDs turn on and off after
the printer is turned on, and then all LEDs turn on for a few seconds.
•
RAM Test—Checks that the CPU can write/read the RAM.
•
Font ROM/Microcode Sum Test—Checks that the ROM data is correct.
•
Timer/Interrupt Controller Test—Checks that this function works.
•
NVRAM Test—Checks that the NVRAM data is correct.
•
Switch Scan Test—Checks the buttons on operator panel.
•
Carrier Initialization—Carrier moves to the left to activate the Home Position sensor, and then
moves to the first print position.
•
Feed Initialization—Form feed motor rotates forward and then backward.
If any errors occur during the POST tests, a combination of blinking LEDs indicates which test failed. See
