Printer Diagnostics FAQ

Know what happens before leaving the printer.

How long does diagnosis take?+

Timing depends on workload, fault depth, testing cycles and whether the symptom can be reproduced.

Does diagnosis guarantee repair?+

No. Parts, cost, age, prior damage and technical viability may make repair unsuitable.

Should I bring cartridges?+

Yes, unless Phoenix advises otherwise. Consumables can affect symptoms and testing.
