CHAPTER 2 SETTING UP THE PRINTER

Printing the Test Patterns or Lists

You can check print quality and print a list of available fonts before you actually start working with the printer. To do so, follow these steps:

1.Make sure that you have already installed the toner cartridges, the OPC Belt Cartridge, the Oil Bottle and the Fuser Cleaner and have loaded paper into the cassette. Make sure that you have removed the protective parts on the Waste Toner Pack.

2Turn on the printer. Wait until the display shows the following message:

LJ READY 001P T1

AUTO

K C M Y

3.Press the Sel button to take the printer off-line. The On Line LED goes off.

4.Hold down the Shift button and press the Test button. Release both buttons.

5.Press the or button to scroll through the display until the desired message appears.

Choose from one of the following selections:

PRINT FONTS I

the list of optional card fonts

PRINT FONTS C

the list of permanent download fonts

PRINT FONTS P

To exit from the test mode, select “ exit”.

Notes

The messages “PRINT FONTS C” or “PRINT FONTS P” appear only when an optional font card is installed in the font slot or when permanent download fonts are stored in printer memory.

If the optional font card is installed, you can print a list of optional fonts. Since the list shows the ID numbers specific to each optional font, it helps you select them with the Font button. For more information, see “FONT Button” in Chapter 4 .

If user-defined characters are already downloaded into the printer memory as permanent download fonts, you can print a list of them. For more information, see “FONT Button” in Chapter 4 .
