6.1 OUTLINE OF THE DIAG. TEST OPERATION

In system mode the diag. test operation is used to diagnose the printer and to set the parameters by using the [FEED], [RESTART] and [PAUSE] keys on the operation panel. Diag. test operation (Type I) is started from the power off state and the parameter setting (Type II) is started while the printer is on-line or printing. For further details, please refer to the corresponding pages.
