Testing the Printer

Now that your printer is fully assembled, you can use its built-in self test function to be sure the printer is working correctly before you connect it to a computer. You should perform this test to make sure that your printer was not damaged during shipping and that the ribbon is correctly installed.

Before performing the self test, you need to plug in your printer and load paper.

Plugging in the printer

1. Make sure that the printer is turned off.

2.Check the label on the printer’s back panel to make sure the voltage required by the printer matches that of your electrical outlet.
