The Service Tests work in a special Mode which does NOT require the full Initialization of the Printer. Therefore it is important that once you have finished with the Service Tests, you MUST power OFF the Printer and Power ON again before trying to print or before executing another Service Test.

In some cases a quick press of a button may not be recognized by the Printer. When pressing a button, be sure to press it deliberately and all the way to the bottom of its travel.

If the Printer hangs up during a test, switch the Printer OFF and restart from step 1.
