TP Dock II - Testing a Printer
Applicable to: World-Wide
Test the printer by connecting it to the computer before testing it on Dock II.
1. Make sure the printer is correctly connected and the power is turned on.
2. Run the printer self-test.
If the printer self-test does not run correctly, the problem is in the printer. Refer to the printer service manual.
If the printer self-test runs correctly, connect a wrap plug on the parallel connector on the rear of Dock II and run the advanced diagnostic tests to determine the failing FRU. If the advanced diagnostic tests (with the wrap plug connected) did not detect a failure, replace the printer cable.
If the problem is not corrected, do one of the following:
If the printer is attached to the parallel connector of Dock II, replace the main card of Dock II.
If the printer is attached to the parallel connector on the adapter, replace the FRUs in the following order one at a time until the problem is corrected:
Note:
If the replaced parts did not resolve the problem, put the original parts back in the Dock II. Do not replace non-defective parts.
1. Adapter
2. Main card of Dock II
