Windows XP and Printers

Print a Test Page

SUMMARY: Ensure your printer is working correctly with your Windows XP system.
 
If you've recently installed a printer with Windows XP, or if you have recently cleaned a printer, you may find it useful to print a test page to make sure everything is ok. Are the connections secured? Is the printer driver working? Is the printer clean and output jobs free of smudges and blemishes?

1. Click "Start", then "Printers and Faxes".
2. When the "Printers and Faxes" window appears, right-click on a printer and choose "Properties".
3. When the "Properties" multi-tabbed dialog box appears, click the button "Print Test Page".
