Testing the Printer

You can test the printer to ensure that it is running properly. The sample on the following page shows what a printout of the test may look like. The test pattern varies depending on the printer model and the character set selected when the printer was ordered.

Run the test after loading the paper, but before connecting it to a host system. If the characters do not print properly, check to make sure the paper is installed correctly, and that suitable thermal paper is being used.

If the printer is still not working correctly, contact your dealer.
