Output bin tests
The Output bin tests setting is used to test the printer’s output bins and its sensors.
Feed Tests
This test verifies that the media from the printer’s default input source feeds to the specific output bin. Press 
to select Single, or press 
and 
to select Continuous. The Single test feeds one sheet of media to the default output bin. No buttons are active during this test. The Continuous test feeds media to the default output
bin until 
is pressed. The indicator light blinks green, and the operator panel displays [Select Output Bin] Feeding... while either of these tests perform.
Sensor Test
This test verifies that the selected output bin’s sensors are working correctly. The following sensors are available in each output bin:
Output bin | Full sensor | Near full sensor | Passthru 1 | Passthru 2 | Level sensor* |

Base sensor test (B. sensor test)
The Base Sensor Test verifies the correct functioning of the following sensors:
•Input
•Sensor Tests
•Front Door
•Standard bin
•S1
•S2
•Fuser Exit
•C-TMC
•
•
•
This test toggles each of these sensors. If a sensor does not toggle, then the sensor is malfunctioning. To exit
