Epson SQ-2550, SQ-850 Running the self test, Note:, Setting Up the Printer

Running the self test

The self test can be run in either draft mode or Letter Quality mode, depending on which button you hold down as you turn on the printer.

Note: For the purposes of setting up and testing your printer, most types of paper can be used. When choosing your paper supply, however, you should always test it before regular use. See the section in Chapter 2 on choosing paper.

CAUTION: Run the self test using paper that is at least as wide as 217 mm (8.27 inches) if you have an SQ-850, or 364 mm (14 inches) if you have an SQ-2550.

Before running the self test, make sure that the power cable is connected to a properly grounded electrical outlet and the printer is turned off.

1.While holding down the LINE FEED button (draft mode) or the FORM FEED button (Letter Quality mode), turn on the printer. The printer beeps three times and the POWER and PAPER OUT lights come on.
