PAUSE Self Test
This self test can be used to provide the test labels required when making adjustments to the
print engine’s mechanical assemblies or to determine if any printhead elements are not
working. Figure 28 shows a sample printout.
To perform a PAUSE self test, complete these steps:
1. Turn off (O) the print engine.
2. Press and hold PAUSE while turning on (I) the print engine. Hold PAUSE until the first
control panel light turns off.
The initial self test prints 15 labels at the print engine’s slowest speed, and then
automatically pauses the print engine. Each time
PAUSE is pressed, an additional 15
labels print. Figure 28 shows a sample of the labels.
