PRINT LINE

PRINT LINE

The printer initiates a test sequence that prints an ink/printhead test image multiple times and at varying speeds.
These test labels can be used when making adjustments to the printer’s mechanical assemblies or to determine if any printhead elements are not working.
During each phase of the test sequence, the printer prints a number of labels at a particular speed and then pauses.
  • Press
    PAUSE
    to print additional labels at the same speed.
  • Press
    CANCEL
    to move to the next phase of the test sequence.
  • Press and hold
    CANCEL
    to exit the test sequence.
