When you continue the test, the computer checks that the printer is
responding correctly. This test detects whether the printer is off-line or
whether an interface error exists. If no errors occur, the computer sends a
repeating sequence of ASCII h c aracters and bit-image data to the printer
until you press any key. The pattern looks like this:
Text data (ZOH-7FH,AOH-FFH)
The text data. includes all the characters commonly used by programs
that require foreign languages or graphic characters. If your printer prints
different characters than you see in the illustration, you may need to take
care with certain software. The bit-image data is sent to the printer using a
command (ESC K) compatible with Epson and IBM printers. If this pattern
is printed correctly, you can use the MS-DOS GRAPHICS program to print
out copies of graphics screens.
Note: Even if the test runs only for a short time, your printer may store
many characters in its buffer. To stop printing, turn the printer
off-line.
