5.3.5 Test print
This self-diagnosis is practiced to print test patterns built in PU. Other test patterns are stored in
the controller.
This print cannot be used to check the print quality.
To diagnose abnormal images, follow Section 7.
1.
Activate the self-diagnostic mode (Level 1), press and hold down the MENU+ or MENU- key,
until "TEST PRINT" appears in the upper line of the display section, and then, press the ENTER
key. (The MENU+ key increments a test item, and the MENU- key decrements a test item.)
2.
The lower line of the display section shows the set items that are applicable to the test print
only. Press and hold down the MENU+ or MENU- key, until the corresponding item appears,
and press the ENTER key. (The MENU+ key increments a test item, while the MENU- key
decrements a test item.)(If the set values of the items are not necessary (Default settings), go
on to Item 5.)
3.
When the ENTER key is depressed after holding down the MENU+ or MENU- key in Item 2
above, a set item is displayed in the upper line of the display section, and a set value, in the
lower line. Pressing the MENU+ key increments the set value, and pressing the MENU- key
decrements it (the set value finally displayed will be applied). Pressing the BACK key defines
the value and restores Item 2. Repeat Item 3, as needed.
