Running The Self Test - Epson LX-1170 User Manual

Running the Self Test

Use the built-in self test function to check that the printer is
working properly. You can run the test with either continuous
paper or single sheets. The procedure below describes the test
using single sheets, which is the easier way.
Follow these steps to run the self test:
1. Make sure the printer is turned off. Also make sure that the
paper-release lever is pushed back to the single-sheet position
and the paper guide is in the upright position, as shown
below.
