2. Press and hold both buttons to enter offline mode. When the printer ready

indicator begins blinking, release both buttons.

3. Press and release the document feed button to print the test pattern. The test

pattern includes all printable characters in the resident code page, printed in the
default font.

4. See Figure 26 and verify that your printer has printed correct information for

your model and configuration:
v Model type (double-byte enabled for Models TI5 and TG5).

v Communication options (RS-232, RS-485, or USB).

v RS-232 parameters, if applicable.

v A solid line should appear as the last line of the test pattern.

If any characters that appear in Figure 26 are missing from the test pattern you
print, or if the solid line is missing, go to “Problem Determination” on page 59.

Test Pattern Notes:

1. The serial number that prints will be the actual serial number of your printer.

2. The microcode level will be the actual level of your printer’s microcode.

3. The serial interface will be specified as RS232, RS485, or USB, depending on

which interface is used to attach the printer to the system unit.

4. The line speed information appears only when the RS-232 interface is used.

The value can be either 9.6 K Baud or 19.2 K Baud, depending on the RS-232
switch settings. (See “RS-232 Communication Mode Selections” on page 23.)

5. The RS-232 control mode information appears only when the RS-232 interface

is used. The value can be either DTR/DSR or XON/XOFF, depending on the
RS-232 switch settings. (See “RS-232 Communication Mode Selections” on
page 23.)
