Rolling ASCII Test

Important!

Wide carriage Model ML491: If you are using 8.5" paper to run the tests, make sure the paper width selection in the printer menu is set to 8.5 inches. Otherwise, printing on the platen may damage the printer. See Chapter 4: Menu Mode for more information.

The Rolling ASCII Print Test produces a continuous printout of all 96 ASCII characters in a rolling pattern in whatever typeface is selected (default = LQ Courier).

The top of the printout shows the Printer Model, Emulation, Country Code, and Firmware Revision Level.

1Make sure continuous forms paper is loaded.

2Turn the printer off.

3Press and hold the QUIET/TOF key while turning the printer back on. (If the printer comes on without starting the Rolling ASCII test print, you did not hold the QUIET/TOF key long enough.)

The printer prints the rolling ASCII text page after page.

4Press SEL to end the test.
