DMP-133 (260-2814)           SELF-TEST                 Faxback Doc. # 4294

PERFORMING A SELF TEST

The DMP-133 has a built-in self-test feature to check the print quality and
general printer operation before you begin using it.

Before running the self-test, be sure to load the DMP-133 with 10-inch 
paper since the test prints from one end  of the platen to the other.

CAUTION: Printing on the platen can shorten the life of the platen and the
print head.

TO RUN THE SELF-TEST:

1. Press and hold either the LINE FEED or NLQ switch. See "Basic Controls."

2. Set the POWER switch to ON. Starting with the sound of the internal 
   buzzer, the DMP-133 will print the ASCII 96 characters preprogrammed 
   into the printer.

If you press LINE FEED, the self-test is performed in the standard font. 
The correspondence quality font is used during the test when the NLQ switch
is pressed.

Printing continues until you press the ON/OFF LINE switch, or turn off the
printer, or paper end is detected.

NOTE: To stop printing at any time, press the ON/OFF LINE button to set the
printer to off-line mode. To print the remaining data in the buffer, cancel
the printing process using your computer software. Then, press the ON/OFF 
LINE button to set the printer to on-line mode.
