Pattern Test

DOC-34014 Rev. C
The pattern test is the basic verification of the printer's ability to produce
quality models, since it demonstrates the condition of the nozzles in the
print heads. Make sure, therefore, that you perform this test weekly, and
whenever you suspect a printing problem.
To perform the pattern test:
1. Make sure that the build tray is empty.
2. Prepare a sheet of pink paper, approximately 21 × 14 centimeters in
size (8.5 × 5.5 inches)—half of the standard A‐4 or Letter size.
3. In the printer, tape the pink paper to the center of the build tray.
4. Press , or open the Options menu and select
