Customer Engineer (CE) Tests
A set of printer tests is included in the configuration menu structure for use
as maintenance tools. These are called “Customer Engineer Tests” (CE
Tests) because they are for your use—they are not available to the user
through his documentation. You will use these tests in various
troubleshooting and adjustment procedures.
