Testing the Printer

When you print a Configuration Page, the printer checks its internal controller and I/O interface, and then prints a test page. You can review the Configuration Page printout to verify proper installation of such options as paper trays or printer languages. For more information, see page 7-45.

Engine Test

The engine test print can be used to verify that the print engine is functioning correctly. For more information, see page 7-9.
