Diagnostic aids 3-19 5058-030 Go Back Previous Next To perform the Button Test: 1.From the Diagnostics Menu, navigate to HARDWARE TESTS. 2.Select Button Test. The LCD displays a graphic of the operator panel buttons that matches the layout of the operator panel buttons. 3.Press any button on the operator panel. Every time a button is pressed, the equivalent button graphic on the LCD appears shaded. When the button is released, the shading is removed. DRAM Test The DRAM Test is used to check the validity of both the device’s standard and optional DRAM. The test involves writing patterns of data to DRAM to verify that each bit in memory can be set and read correctly. To run the DRAM Test: 1.From the Diagnostics Menu, navigate to HARDWARE TESTS. 2.Select DRAM Test. DRAM Test Testing... appears on the LCD, and then Resetting the Printer appears. The printer automatically performs a POR. The following type of message appears: •P:###### represents the number of times the memory test has passed and finished successfully. Initially 000000 displays with the maximum pass count being 999,999. •F:##### represents the number of times the memory test has failed and finished with errors. Initially 0000 displays with the maximum fail count being 99,999. Initially only four digits appear, but additional digits appear as needed. To stop this test before completion, turn the printer off. Panel Test After a user chooses this setting, the device automatically executes the operator panel test application which occupies the entire display panel. The test application automatically toggles each pixel in the display panel through every contrast level, beginning with the darkest (every pixel turned on and as dark as possible) and ending with the lightest (every pixel turned off). The panel then illuminates the backlight, and then it turns off. Essentially, this test identifies any non-functioning pixels, since these appear as blank spaces during the test’s darker stages. This test is run by navigating to HARDWARE TESTS and then selecting Panel Test. Serial Wrap 1 Test The Serial Wrap Test is used to check the operation of the serial port hardware using a wrap plug. Each serial signal is tested. INPUT TRAY TESTS Feed Tests (Input Tray) This test is used to observe the paper path of media as it passes through the printer. To observe the paper path, a user can open the upper rear door while this test executes. No information is printed on the feed test pages since the printhead LED isn’t engaged during this test.DRAM Test 256MB P:###### F:####

However, during Continuous tests, you can press Stop to cancel the test. Feed To All Bins This test is used to verify that the device can feed media to all installed output destinations. No information is printed on the feed test pages since the printhead LED is not engaged during this test. PRINT TESTS This menu’s settings enable a user to test the device’s ability to generate printed output from each of its installed input sources and to test the device’s current print quality. [Input Source] Print Test After a user selects an input source to test, the panel displays two testing options: Single or Continuous. A Single test feeds one sheet of media from the selected input and prints a test page on it; the Continuous test continuously feeds media from the selected input and prints test pages until the user presses Stop. During a Single test, none of the panel’s buttons are active while the test page prints. To run this test: 1.From the Diagnostics Menu, navigate to PRINT TESTS. 2.Select the input source from the following choices: •Tray 1 •Tray 2 •Tray 3 •Tray 4 •Multi-Purpose Feeder) 3.Touch either Single or Continuous. •Single—Feeds one sheet of media from the selected source. •Continuous—Media continues feeding from the selected source until Stop is pressed. Print Quality Pages (Diagnostics Menu) This setting enables a user to view the values of a broad range of the device’s settings and to test the device’s ability to generate acceptable printed output. PRINTER SETUP Configuration ID This setting enables a user to change both Configuration ID 1 and Configuration ID 2. Mono and Color Page Count The values of these settings enable a user to gauge the amount and type of usage on a device. The Mono Page Count setting’s value will equal the value of the Picked Sides meter. The Color Page Count setting’s value will equal the value of the Total Color sub-meter within the Imaged Printed Sides meter. Parallel Strobe Adjustment (all parallel ports) This setting enables the user to adjust the amount of time the strobe is sampled in order to determine if valid data is available on the parallel port. Each time this value is incremented by 1, the strobe is sampled 50 nanoseconds longer. Each time this value is decreased by 1, the strobe is sampled 50 nanoseconds less. When the value of this setting is 0, the factory default value is used to determine the length of time the strobe is sampled.

Permanent Page Count The value of this setting indicates the total number of pages that have been printed by the device. Reset Color Calibration This setting enables the device to adjust the alignment of its color planes using pre-programmed default values. Using this setting to adjust color plane linearization may not provide a calibration as effective as using Automatic Color Adjust Calibration. While this text executes, the panel posts Resetting. Serial Number This setting records the device’s 13-character (last character is a null value) serial number that was assigned by manufacturing. U.S. / Non-U.S. Defaults The value of this setting determines whether the device uses the U.S. or Non-U.S. factory default value. To change this setting: 1.From the Diagnostics Menu, navigate to PRINTER SETUP. 2.Select Defaults. 3.Touch or to change the value. 4.Touch Submit to save the setting, or touch Back to return to the Diagnostics Menu without saving any changes.
