Print Tests (input sources)
This test determines if the printer can print on media from any of the paper input sources. Each of the installed
sources is available within the Print Tests menu.
The content of the test page varies depending on the media installed in the selected input source.
• If a source is selected that contains paper, then a page similar to the Quick Test Page is printed and does
not contain the Print Registration diamonds.
• If a source is selected which contains envelopes, then an Envelope Print Test pattern is printed. This
pattern only contains text, which consists of continuous prints of each character in the selected symbol set.
• If Continuous is selected, all sources printing with paper sizes prints the same page continuously until the
test is stopped. If continuous is selected from a source which contains envelopes then the envelope print
test pattern is printed on the first envelope and the rest are blank.
The Print Test page always prints single sided, regardless of the Duplex setting or the presence of the Duplex
option.
To run the Print Test:
1. Select PRINT TESTS from the menu.
2. Select the paper source from the menu.
3. Select either Single or Continuous from the menu.
Note: If Single is selected, no buttons are active while the Print Test Page is printing. If Continuous is
selected, Return or Stop can be pressed to cancel the test.
The following screen is displayed while printing.
4. Press Return or Stop at the end of the test to return to the original screen.
Print Quality Pgs
The print quality test consists of five pages. Pages one and two contain a mixture of graphics and text. The
remainder of the pages only contain graphics. See “Print tests” on appendix page B-3 for samples of the Print
Quality Pgs.
This test may be printed from either Configuration Menu or the Diagnostics mode. To run the print quality pages
from the Diagnostics mode, select PRINT TESTS and Print Quality Pgs from the menu. Once the test is started
it cannot be canceled. When the test pages print the printer returns to the original screen.
