Customer Engineer (CE) Tests
A set of printer tests is included in the configuration menu structure for use as maintenance tools. These are called “Customer
Engineer Tests” (CE Tests) because they are for your use; they are not available to the user through his documentation. You
will use these tests in various troubleshooting and adjustment procedures. CE tests do not run at the rated speed of the printer.
Figure 7. This figure shows the menu structure of the Customer Engineer Tests.
