USING SETUP MODE
User's Manual 5-69
This section describes how to use the following diagnostic functions:
• SELF-TST
• HEX-DUMP
• V-ALMNT
These functions are used for checking print quality and diagnosing
printer problems. HEX-DUMP also provides useful information for
programmers.
Printing the Self-Test
The SELF-TST function prints test pages to check how the printer
operates independently of your computer. The self-test does not check
the interface between the computer and the printer.
The self-test prints the printer’s firmware version, its resident emulations,
and all of the characters available in the currently selected character set.
If the DPL24C PLUS emulation is selected for MENU1, the self-test is
printed using the settings currently assigned to MENU1.
Procedure
This procedure assumes that you are in setup mode. To print the self-test,
make sure that continuous forms paper is loaded into the printer.
Then proceed as follows :
1. Print the <<FUNCTION>> menu.(LED)
The <<FUNCTION>> menu should be the last printed line on
the page. If the menu is not printed, press the ONLINE button to
print the menu. If you are using the HEX-DUMP function,
press the “TEAR OFF” or “LOAD” button instead of the
ONLINE button to print the menu. The following
<<FUNCTION>> menu is printed:
