The plotter tests the pens to ensure proper operation. The test runs approxi-
mately one minute and the display indicates the pens being tested. After test-
ing, the pen alignment procedure is automatically performed. Allow the
alignment procedure to complete before resuming normal plotter operation.

SELECTABLE INK-DRYING TIMES

User-selectable ink-drying times are available on the DesignJet 650C plotters through the
