Options in Extended Test Mode

Select Media | This option is almost the same as the | ||
| process in Test mode, except that the | ||
| printer performs a slow test feed in | ||
| Extended Test mode. The slow test feed | ||
| enables the printer to perform a slow | ||
| sensor calibration which can help resolve | ||
| gap or mark detection problems. | ||
|
|
|
|
Test Labels | This option allows you to print test labels | ||
| one at a time. Press |
| to print the next |
|
| ||
| label. | ||
