SelecType Menus and Options

Menu 8: Status Sheet/Self Test

Use this menu to print a status sheet or a self test. The self test is a one-page sample showing output from your printer. It lets you check printer operation without sending a print job from your computer.

The status sheet is a report containing information on your printer configuration and SelecType settings and print samples of the available fonts. The status sheet makes an excellent SelecType menu and is a handy way to check all of your settings. The factory setting is PO: Status sheet.

Note: Only letter or A4 size paper should be used to print status sheets or self tests. Other sizes of paper cause a paper size error. Your printout may also be incomplete if you use paper smaller than letter size.

Choose the status sheet or self test option and press SET (to save the setting). Close the printer cover. When the status sheet or self test is finished printing, the printer goes off line automatically. A sample of the self test is shown below.
