categories are checked:

An asterisk is displayed below a category when its check completes normally.
All Characters Print Check -
Test printing will not start until the six status categories in the status check all
show an asterisk (below the category). If a hardware malfunction is detected, an asterisk will not appear
below the corresponding category. In this case, you will not be able to do a test print. Make a note of the
error message, and contact your dealer.
Once all categories contain asterisks, press any key. The system returns to the menu. Try the print check. A
test pattern should print.
