PAPER PATH TEST

Generates a test page that is

 

useful for testing the paper-

 

handling features of the printer.

 

Press (SELECT button) to start

 

the paper-path test using the

 

source (tray), destination

 

(output bin), duplex, and

 

number of copies settings that

 

you set in the other items on

 

the PAPER PATH TEST menu.

 

Set the other items before

 

selecting PRINT TEST PAGE.

 

SOURCE: Select the tray that

 

uses the paper path that you

 

want to test. You can select

 

any tray that is installed. Select

 

ALL TRAYS to test all tray

 

paper paths. Paper must be

 

loaded in the selected trays.

 

DESTINATION: Select the

 

output bin that uses the paper

 

path that you want to test. You

 

can select any output bin that is

 

installed. Optional bins (stacker

 

or stapler/stacker bin) must

 

also be correctly configured in

 

the printer driver. Select ALL

 

BINS to test all paper paths.

 

COPIES: Set how many sheets

 

of paper are used from each

 

tray during the paper-path test.

 

If you are testing the optional

 

stapler/stacker (DESTINATION

 

item), select 10 or more sheets.

MANUAL SENSOR TEST

This item performs a test to

 

determine whether the paper

 

path sensors are operating

 

correctly.

COMPONENT TEST

This item will activate individual

 

parts independently to isolate

 

noise, leaking, and other

 

hardware issues.

PRINT/STOP TEST

This item isolates print quality

 

faults more accurately by

 

stopping the printer in mid-print

 

cycle. Stopping the printer in

 

mid-print cycle allows you to

 

see where the image begins to

 

degrade. Stopping the printer in

 

mid-print cycle will cause a jam

 

that may need to be manually

 

removed. A service

 

representative should perform

 

this test.
