This self test is actually comprised of four individual test features, as
described below.
1. The initial self test prints 15 labels at speed “A” then automatically
PAUSES the printer. When the PAUSE key is pressed, an additional
15 labels print out.
2. While the printer is PAUSED, pressing the CANCEL key once alters
the self test. When the PAUSE key is pressed, the printer prints 15
labels at speed “D” (“C” for the 300 dpi ).
3. While the printer is PAUSED, pressing the CANCEL key a second
time alters the self test again. When the PAUSE key is pressed, the
printer prints 50 labels at speed “A.”
4. While the printer is PAUSED, pressing the CANCEL key once alters
the self test a third time. When the PAUSE key is pressed, the printer
prints 50 labels at speed “D” (“C” for the 300 dpi ).
Note: On printers with either the rewind or peel option installed, the
peel mode is activated during the first half (steps 1–4) of the
PAUSE Key Self Test. On printers with a rewind option, the
rewind plate must be removed for proper function of the peel
sensors during the test. The first label to print says, “PEEL
OPTION INSTALLED.” Each label must be manually removed
from the sensor path before the next label prints. Steps 1–4 are
then repeated in rewind mode.
This self test can be used to provide the test printouts required when
making adjustments to the printer’s mechanical assemblies. See the
sample printout in Figure 13.
