SELF-TEST

The “self-test” is a trial run of your beautiful new machine. SR-lo/15 carries a built-in program that prints out sample lines of letters, numbers, and other characters - to show you that everything’s in good working order. It also serves as a display of the characters available in the SR-10/15. And finally, it’s a “warm-up” that permits you to check your installation of ribbon and paper, and the adjustment of the print head gap.

Best of all, you don’t have to wait another minute - you can print the self-test without hooking up the SR-lo/15 to your computer! It’s as simple as 1, 2, 3...

1.Plug the printer’s power cord into an electrical outlet.

2.Insert a sheet of paper (or sprocket paper, either one).

3.While holding down the LF button, turn the power switch on.

Were you surprised? It’s speedy, isn’t it? 200 characters a second, to be exact (when printing normal pica type).
