The 4420 or 4440 printer can print a variety of test print labels that
provide you with information about the printer configuration and the
quality of the printing.
To print a test label
1 Turn off the printer.
2 Press and hold the Feed/Pause button while turning on the printer.
The printer prints out a hardware configuration label and then enters
Data Line Print mode.
3 Set the DIP switches to print out the test label of your choice: software,
print quality, or pitch. Refer to the Test and Service DIP Switch
Settings table for the correct settings.
4 Hold the Feed/Pause button down until the printer starts printing.
The printer begins printing out the test label immediately.
5 Exit Test and Service mode by turning the printer off and returning all
DIP switches to their original settings.
Use Data Line Print mode to troubleshoot communications between the
printer and host and to test the operation of the printer. When the printer
is in Data Line Print mode, it prints all downloaded data with the
hexadecimal equivalent directly underneath it. Hold the Feed/Pause
button down momentarily to suspend the test. Press the Feed/Pause
button longer to transmit the firmware program and version number to
the host.
To enter Data Line Print mode
1 Turn off the printer.
2 Press down and hold the Feed/Pause button while turning on the
printer.
The hardware configuration test label is printed. You are now in Data Line
Print mode.
If you want to copy select formats, pages, fonts, or graphics to another
printer but you do not want to clone the entire RAM contents, use the
selective transfer command. Use this command to set up different printers
to print the same label formats.
