Test Prints This topic illustrates the test prints produced by the printer. The topic "Printing and print quality problems" on page 48 discusses solutions to problems revealed in the test prints. Interpreting the 100% Color Stripe Pattern The 100% Color Stripe Pattern consist of two set of bars. Each set of bars is made of of a seven bars, each bar is a 100% solid ﬁll of the primary colors (cyan, magenta, yellow and black) and the secondary colors (red, green and blue). Look for: 1. Consistent ﬁlls in each primary color. Each color should be consistent across the width of the page with no voids. 2. No separation or misconvergence where each bar meets its neighbor. Each bar is separated by a thin black line. 0728-16 Service Guide 211
