Running the test

The printer prints characters in the current font and character
table. Here is part of a typical self test:
!"#$%&I()*+,-./0123456789:;<=>?@ABCDEFGHIJKL
!'I#$%&'( )*+,-.
/0123456789:;<=>?@ABCDEFGHIJKLM
"#$%&I()*+,-./0123456789:;<=>?@ABCDEFGHIJKLMN
#$%&I()*+,-./0123456789:;<=>?@ABCDEFGHIJKLMNCJ
$%&I ()*+,-.
/0123456789:;<=>?@ABCDEl?GHIJKLMNOP
%a'()*+,-.
/0123456789:;
<=>?@ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQ
%I()*+,-.

Note:
If the paper cassette is empty when you turn the power on,
the printer beeps three times and the light flashes. Load paper as
described above and press the
FORM FEED
button to start the self
test.
3.
To stop the self test, turn off the printer.
Connecting the Printer to Your Computer
If the self test prints correctly, you’re ready to connect your printer
to the computer. You need a shielded twisted-pair parallel cable to
connect your computer to the printer’s built-in parallel interface.
Follow these steps to connect the parallel interface cable:
1.
Make sure both the printer and computer are turned off; then
plug the cable connector securely into the printer’s interface
connector.
