How to Use This Test Page
- Load plain white paper into your printer.
- Click the “Print This Page” button above.
- In the print dialog, set quality to “Best” and resolution to the highest available setting.
- Print the page and examine it under good lighting, preferably with a magnifying glass for small sizes.
- Compare text clarity across all sizes and styles using the assessment guide below.
What to Look For
- All text sizes down to 6pt should be legible with clearly formed characters.
- Serif details (thin strokes, brackets, terminals) should be sharp and well-defined, not filled in or broken.
- There should be no ink smearing, bleeding, or ghosting around characters at any size.
- Bold, italic, and regular variants should be clearly distinct from each other at every size.
- Monospace characters should align in a perfect grid with consistent character width.
Troubleshooting Tips
- Small text (6–8pt) is blurry or illegible
- Increase print resolution to 1200 dpi or higher. Ensure you are using smooth, high-quality paper. Run a printhead alignment.
- Text appears smeared or has ink bleeding
- Switch to a paper type designed for your printer. On inkjet printers, ensure the paper type setting matches the actual paper loaded.
- Bold text appears too thick or fills in
- Reduce print density in the driver settings. Some printers have a “toner save” or “ink density” adjustment that can help.
- Characters appear jagged or pixelated
- Ensure the print resolution is set to at least 600 dpi. Check that the printer driver is using the correct font rendering mode.
