Test Prints
Test Prints can isolate printing problems to the Engine Control or Image Processor
Board by eliminating image data transfer between the two. Test Prints does not
exercise any Image Processor Board circuitry. Test Prints gets its image data from
ROM. This allows the examination of Engine Control Board function in isolation.
Some other key features of Test Prints:
Is the only diagnostic utility to exercise the entire print cycle.
Isolated from the operating system (PostScript). Runs from firmware.
Isolates the Image Processor Board from Engine Control Board.
Helps to isolate events that cause print artifacts or prevents printing.
