Short test mode
If the printer is turned on while the (ONLINE)button is pressed, the printer
will enter the short self-test mode. The printer will print the version number
of the printer’s ROM, followed by seven lines of the character set.
Each line will be offset by one character from the one before it. The final
result will be something like Figure 4-4.

4-4. Short self-test.
Since the self-test prints across the full width of the carriage, it is recom-
mended that the printer is loaded with the widest paper possible to avoid
damage to the print head and/or platen.
