Image Quality RAPs
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. Table 2
describes the test patterns and the purpose for which they are used to identify image quality
defects.
To create a test print from the Control Panel:
1. Enter Diagnostic Mode. Press the <Menu> button, the <#> button, then using the keypad
select <1934>, then press the <OK> button.
2. Select: [Diagnostics, Machine Test, Test Pattern, Print, Yes]. Press the <OK> button
after menu selections.
• Test Pattern 1 for 8.5 x 11 prints.
