How Do I Test the Color Printing on My Printer?

Make sure your color printer is connected to your computer and is turned on.
Click 'Start.'
Click 'Printers and Other Hardware' in Windows XP, and then click 'View installed printers or fax printers.' In Windows Vista or Windows 7, click 'Printers.'
Locate the icon for your color printer in the window that appears. Once you find the icon, right-click it and select 'Properties.'
Click the 'General' tab, and then click 'Print Test Page' to print a color test page from the printer you selected.
