Warning!

Do no open any covers unless prompted to do so. Opening covers out of turn or otherwise interfering with the system will result in a series of error messages that may require the system to be restarted.

  1. Once the system has been reconfigured, you will be prompted to print test patterns on tape. Select Ready.
  2. Select Tape.
  3. Check the test pattern.
    • If the solid lines of the test sample are unbroken, select Image is OK - Done.
    • If the test pattern has missing or incomplete lines, select Not OK - Clean print head. Once the cleaning operation completes, you will be prompted to print another test pattern. If the pattern still has broken or missing lines, you may need to replace the ink cartridge or printhead.
