1-8 Basic Operations
Printing and Reading a Self-test Label
Printing a self-test label checks the printer's overall operability. To run a self- test, confirm that the printer is loaded and connected to AC power and no print jobs are in process – then:
1.Press and hold in the READY indicator.
2.Press and release the FEED button.
3.The printer should begin printing a self-test label. Release the READY indicator after printing starts.
4.After the self-test label finishes printing, press the READY indicator to reset the printer and restore normal operation.
Important!
The printer will be in hex dump mode after printing the self-test label. It cannot print normal labels in hex dump mode, instead it prints the hex value for each character received. The printer will return to normal operation after you reset it as described in step 4 above.
