Testing the Printer

Now that your printer is fully assembled, you can use its built-in self test function to see that 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 running the self test, you need to plug in the printer and load paper.

Plugging in the printer

1.Make sure that the printer is turned off. Then check the label on the back of the printer to make sure the power rating required by the printer matches that of your electrical outlet.

WARNING: If the rated voltage and your outlet voltage do not match, contact your nearest Epson dealer for assistance. Do not plug in the power cable.
