This video explains how to print a self-test page for your printer.
A self-test page provides useful information about your printer that can be used when troubleshooting
issues. Print a self-test page by first loading paper
into the input tray. Adjust the guides so that they are snug against the stack.
On the printer control panel, press and hold the Cancel button and then press the Color
Start button. Release both buttons at the same time.
The self-test page prints. Now, let's talk about what the self-test
page can tell us about your printer. The most obvious thing is that if the self-test
page prints out, you know the printer itself is working correctly.
So if you run into problems printing from your computer, it is probably caused by your
connection, your operating system, or the software you're printing from.
However, if you see smearing, the wrong color, or some other error, the documents you print
will likely have the same problem. The self-test page can also give you valuable
information on print quality, page count,
serial number, and other helpful information for troubleshooting.
