ance of the thermal print head. Following the check pattern, the printer prints its
internal settings as listed below:
1. Printer model and firmware version

5. Serial port setting

11. Gap (Bline) width and offset setting
12. Backing paper transparence

When the self test is completed, the printer enters the dump mode. Please turn
the printer's power off and then on again to resume normal printing.
