Self Test
The Encore 3 can perform a self test which will print a
line of interlocking “x” characters to insure all elements of
the print head are working, and then print out the version
of software loaded in the printer. Refer to the Trouble-
shooting section for more details on interpreting the self-
test.
The self test is activated by the following key sequence:
1. Press the "FEED" key
2. While still holding down the "FEED" key, turn on
the printer by pressing and releasing the "ON" key.
3. Release the "FEED" key
The Encore 3 will remain on after running the self test.
