Testing the Printer

After you charge the ink delivery system, you can use the

built-in self test to make sure the printer is working properly.

You can run the self test with paper from the built-in paper

feeder or by feeding a sheet manually. This section describes

loading paper in the paper feeder.

Loading paper in the paper feeder

1. Open the paper feeder cover while holding up the lever on

the right side.

2. Slowly slide the right edge guide as far to the left as it will

go, and align it to the guide mark. Then adjust the left

edge guide to match the width of your paper. You may

also use the guide mark for A4 size paper. When you load

paper 420 mm (16.5 inches) wide, move the right edge

guide as far to the right as it will go.

3. Move the center support to the center of both edge guides.

When you load A4 or A3 size paper in the landscape

direction, adjust the center support until you can see the

paper size you are using through the cutout in the center

support.

4. Fan a stack of paper; then tap it on a flat surface to even the

edges. While aligning the paper’s edges with the edge

guides, insert it with the printable surface face down all

the way into the paper feeder until it meets resistance.

Note:

The paper feeder holds up to 100 sheets (the maximum for 64-g/m

or 16-lb. paper). Do not load paper higher than the mark on the

edge guide.

5. Close the paper feeder cover.

When you send data to the printer or when you run the self

test, the printer advances the paper to the loading position

and starts printing.

Now you are ready to run the self test.
