Table 2-1 lists the self tests and default resets that can be accessed by pressing and
holding a front panel key or keys and turning power on. The “X” in the four columns on the
right indicates which key or keys are pressed.
The  indicates that the self test is one that can be performed by the operator or
maintenance personnel. These tests produce sample labels and provide specific
information that helps the operator or maintenance personnel determine operating
conditions for the printer. Self tests without the  are for repair and maintenance of the
printer and should be performed only by maintenance personnel.
Detailed information on the operator self tests immediately follows this chart. Detailed
information on maintenance personnel-only self tests are found in “Preventive and
Corrective Maintenance” on page 4-1 along with extended diagnostics.
Note • The printer data cable must be removed from the printer (except for the Mode
Key Self Test) prior to running the self tests.
