Entering the Service Calibrations Menu System

1 Make sure the printer is switched OFF from the power switch on the back
of the printer and not from the standby button on the front of the printer.
2 Hold the UP and ENTER keys down and switch the printer ON. Wait
until the message Status/Initializing" is displayed on the front panel
before releasing the UP and ENTER keys.
The reason for entering the Service Tests by powering ON is because
various tests are performed during the initialization of the printer and
also certain System Errors will cause an abnormal start up and will
never reach the Status/Ready" message on the front panel.
3 Once the message Status/Ready" is displayed on the front panel, press
the Enter key.
4 Use the Arrow keys to scroll to the Utilities" menu display and press the
Enter button. Make sure that you are in the Full menu mode because
otherwise you will not be able to access the Service Tests" submenu.
5 Use the Arrow keys to scroll to the Service Tests" menu display and
press the Enter button.
6 Use the Arrow keys to scroll to the Service Calibrations" menu display
and press the Enter button.

8 Press the Enter button to begin a specific calibration when the required
calibration is displayed.
If the printer is not used for 5 minutes, the printer exits out of the
Service Mode and you must repeat the above steps to enter the service
mode again.
In some cases a quick press of a button may not be recognized by the
processor. When pressing a button, be sure to press it deliberately and
all the way to the bottom of its travel.
If the Printer hangs up during a calibration, switch the Printer OFF and
restart from step 2.
If you have media loaded you will be forced to remove it when
you exit the Diagnostics menu.
