Run A Barcode Demo Test
IMPORTANT Printronix recommends using the supplied starter roll of 100 labels to setup and verify printer operation. This will avoid expending the more expensive smart labels for this task.
Before you send an actual print job, run a barcode demo test:
1.Press the PAUSE key until “OFFLINE” displays.
2.Press the TEST PRINT key until “Printer Tests/Barcode Demo” displays.
3.Press ↵. The Barcode Demo test pattern will start and print two barcodes.
4.Check the test pattern. If necessary, reposition the pressure blocks to obtain a uniform print quality. In most cases, you will need to adjust only the right pressure block.
5.If desired, you can run additional printer tests, such as Grey, Grid, and Checkerboard. See step 1 above to start other tests.
NOTE: These tests default to run continuously. Press ↵ to end the test.
