Printing tests are used to check that no dot drop-out occurs. Use paper for testing (width 90 mm (3.54 in.) × length 70 mm (2.76 in.) or more), not the object that will actually be printed on.MEMO:
There are two types of printing tests. Select the paper to be used based on the features of the given type.
Type Features
It is difficult to check the white ink if the paper for use in the printing test is white. We recommend printing on transparent paper.
Because white ink is printed on a black undercoat, white ink can be easily checked even when printed on white paper. However, printing takes longer than "TEST PRINT."
MEMO:Secure the media with tape.
Secure the media in place using a substance such as commercially available tape affixed directly to the flat table. This method can be used for thin paper and other such media that can be secured with tape only. It can be set anywhere as long as it does not protrude from the top of the flat table. Be aware that folds or kinks in the paper might hit the interior of the printer and cause damage.
