Test Prints
Test Pattern pages are available for troubleshooting image quality defects and to confirm
proper printer operation. Printing the Test Pattern is useful for stimulating asynchronous
(dynamic) events related to the print process, or as a test for media path and media-related
problems.
The test print provides a variety of different line
styles in both process and cross-process direc-
tions. The pattern is used to check registration, dot size and image density.
Test Pattern 1 and Test Pattern 2 are essentially the same but for different media sizes. Ta
