Printing a Self Test
Running the printer’s self test helps you determine whether the
printer or the computer is causing the problem:
If the self test results are satisfactory, the printer is working
properly and the problem probably results from your
printer driver settings, application settings, computer, or
interface cable. (Be sure to use a shielded interface cable.)
If the self test does not print properly, there is a problem
with the printer. See “Problems and Solutions” for possible
causes and solutions to the problem.
You can print the self test using either single sheets or
continuous paper. See Chapter 3 for instructions on loading
continuous paper, or Chapter 4 for instructions on loading
single sheets.
Note:
Use paper of at least the following width:
Paper type FX-880 FX-1180
continuous paper 241 mm (9.5 inches) 376 mm (14.8 inches)
single sheet A4 or letter size A3 landscape
