Step 14. Test Printer to Verify Setup
The easiest way to verify that the installation has been completed
successfully is to print a test file from a software application.
1 Make sure the printer is on (I) and the printer display reads READY or
POWERSAVE ON
.
2 Load a software application of your choice (from either MS Windows or
DOS).
3 Make sure you have selected the LaserJet 5 driver within your
application.
4 Open or create a simple document.
5 Print the document.
If the test file prints, installation is now complete. If nothing printed,
use the following procedure to verify that the computer and printer are
connected properly.
1 Make sure the printer is on (I) and the printer display reads READY or
POWERSAVE ON.
2 From a DOS prompt type C:\DIR >PRN and press Enter on the
keyboard.
3 Press Go . The page should contain your directory listing.
If the directory listing printed but the test file above did not, repeat the
software installation procedures (Step 12). If nothing printed, go to the
problem solving questions on the following pages.
