4.4 Diagnostic Mode
Diagnostic Mode temporarily powers the printer using factory default parameters while
printing out the printer’s current configuration on what is called the Status Label. This
information is used to help diagnose and troubleshoot printer configuration issues. The
default baud rate is set to 9600 and is used when entering the diagnostic mode. The printer
continues using the factory default parameters until printer power is cycled. The printer will
then return to the previous configuration in use before entering the diagnostic mode.

To enter the diagnostic mode, press and hold the print button in while turning on the printer.
Release the button after the status light indicator starts to blink and the printer will power up
into diagnostic mode.
