CHAPTERIV TROUBLESHOOTING 1. INSPECTION MODE 1.1 Inbuilt Inspection Modes The printer incorporates the following inspection modes such as the factory inspection mode and the test print mode. Factory inspection mode, Continuous grid pattern print mode, 3 patterns print mode, NVRAM value dump mode, ROM code update (FLASH rom only), RAM check and 4% density test print.. The operation of the inspection mode is as follows. (1) Turn off the power to the printer. (2) With the top cover open, turn on the power while holding down the button on the operation panel. When entering this mode, the DRUM LED is ON. Holding down the button causes the LEDs to turn ON in the order DRUM -> ALARM -> READY -> DATA -> DRUM. When you release the button, a mode is selected. The mode selected is indicated by the LED which is ON when you release the button. The inspection modes are assigned to the respective LEDs as shown below.
