************************************************** **** HP DESIGNJET 750/755C DIAGNOSTICS V1.0 **** ************************************************** These service diagnostics operate using WINDOWS. Do NOT run them directly from DOS. ========================== == INSTALATION PROCESS. == ========================== Installation is not automatic (although it will be, for future releases). (1) Create a directory on the destination drive. Note: The diagnostics program does not place files outside the ---- directory you create. Deleting the directory after the tests leaves the PC as it was before the tests. (2) Copy the following files to the directory you created. bc40rtl.dll bwcc.dll dj750c.exe dj750c.ini Note: THE HELP FACILITY IS NOT INCLUDED YET, so avoid to press ---- the help button not to obtain an error. (3) Drag dj250c.exe from the File Manager to a Program Group to create the icon of the program. Note: If you use a floppy disk, DO NOT PROTECT it against WRITE. ---- During the diagnostic testing, the .ini is modified, and some temporary files are created. =============================== == STARTING THE DIAGNOSTICS. == =============================== 1- Make sure that the correct serial cable is connected between the computer and the plotter (For a 9-pin HP Vectra port, this should be cable with part number 24542G.) 2- Execute dj750c.exe from the File Manager, or double click on the diagnostics icon. 3- Turn on the plotter while pressing the 'Previous' button on the plotter's front panel. 4- Find out the serial-port configuration of the plotter. 5- Click on the CONNECT button on the main window of the diagnostics. 6- Make sure that the computer serial-port configuration matches the plotter's SetUp. 7- Once connected, perform the individual diagnostics. Note: The Y-axis test is quite long (especially for E-size ---- plotters). Note: You need a special tool to perform the Pen Height test. ---- Note: You need a special tool to perform the Primer/Cap test. ---- Note: THE HELP FACILITY IS NOT INCLUDED YET, so avoid to press ---- the help button not to obtain an error. ========================== == SUGGESTIONS. == ========================== Please send any suggestion as to how the program could be improved to: Ramon BARBA / ALIBER/00 Regards.
