Performing a
Printer
Self-Test
If you experience problems with broken characters or
other print quality issues, you should perform a printer
self-test. The self-test verifies that all elements of the print
head are in working condition.
To perform a self test:
1. Turn off the printer (using the switch on the back of the
printer).
2. Press and hold down the form-feed button.
3. Turn on the printer and then release the form-feed button.
Your LabelWriter will print vertical lines along the width
of the printer. To change the test pattern being printed,
press the form feed button.
4. Turn the printer off to stop the self-test and reset the
printer.
