How to print a test page on macOS

macOS printer options vary by model and driver. These steps help you find basic controls and use browser-based test pages when you need a clearer diagnostic pattern.

macOS steps

  1. Open System Settings and choose Printers & Scanners.
  2. Select your printer from the list.
  3. Open options, supplies, or the printer queue if available.
  4. Use the printer utility or driver test page option if your model provides one.
  5. For a more detailed check, print one of this site’s original test pages from Safari, Chrome, or Firefox.

Try the alignment test page for skew and margin checks or the grayscale test page for toner and contrast issues.
