Print Engine Self Tests

Introduction

These self tests, illustrated on the following pages, produce sample labels and provide

specific information that help determine the operating conditions for the print engine.

Each self test is enabled by pressing a specific control panel key or combination of keys

while turning the power switch ON. Keep the key pressed until the first indicator light

turns OFF. The selected self test will automatically start at the end of the Power On Self

Test.

NOTE: The following apply to your print engine:

• When performing these self tests, do not send data to the print engine from the

Host.

• Full width media should be used when performing Print engine Self Tests. If

your media is not wide enough, the test labels may print on the label and the

platen roller, or in the case of narrow media, not on the label at all. To prevent

this from happening, check the configuration parameter “Setting the Print

Width”, and insure it is correct for the media you are using.

• If your media is too short, the test label will continue on the next label.

• When canceling a self test prior to its actual completion, always reset the print

engine by turning the print engine power OFF and then ON.

• When performing these self tests, the operator must manually remove the labels

as they become available.

• You may have to set the print mode to Tear-Off and Applicator Port to OFF for

the labels to print.
