CHAPTER 8  MAINTENANCE MODE 

This chapter describes the maintenance mode which is exclusively designed for the purpose of  
checks, settings and adjustments using the keys on the control panel. 
You can customize the EEPROM according to the shipment destination of the machine  
concerned.  In addition, you can perform operational checks of the LCD, control panel PCB or  
sensors, perform a print test, display the log information or error codes, and modify firmware  
switches (WSW).
