1.8 INITIAL POWER-UP AND SELF-TEST
A self-test feature is built into your MSP/MPP compact printer series. To start the self-test,
press the <FEED> switch during initial power-up of the printer (see below).
Once the battery is installed and all the front panel LED indicators are turned off (press the
<OFF> or <SET> switch to turn off) press and hold down the <FEED> switch, then press the
<SLCT> or <ON> switch, this will automatically start the self test. The self-test program checks
the integrity of the operating program installed, the 2048 character print buffer, the processor
watchdog, and the power supervision circuits. The printer performs an internal self-test and
prints the self-test findings, current printer settings, and starts continuous print of the built-in
printer character fonts. To stop the self-test process, press the <FEED> switch.
If no problems are found, the following messages are printed:
