Epson EPL-7500 Printer User Manual


 
Testing the Printer
When you turn on the printer, it automatically prints a start page,
containing simple text and graphics. Normally, processing of the
start page begins about 70 seconds after you turn the printer on.
The start page does not print if the STARTPAGE option in
SelecType Level 2 is set to OFF or if the printer takes more than
three minutes to warm up.
Note: In most cases, leave the STARTPAGE option set to on.
The start page lists useful information about your printer’s
current settings and lets you know the printer is working
properly and ready to print.
You can also print test prints with the TEST PRINT option in
SelecType Level 2. See Chapter 3.
Before you turn on the printer, make sure you have removed all
packing material from the printer, as described in Chapter 1,
installed all the components, and loaded paper as described in the
following section. You do not need to connect the printer to your
computer to print a start page.
Loading paper for a start page
The standard paper cassette can automatically feed up to 250
sheets of paper. To load paper, follow the steps below. See
Chapter 4 if you need more information on paper handling.
