Online Diagnostics Technical Support
Online Diagnostics Technical Support is an automated, Internet-based support system that uses
your default Web browser to send diagnostic information from your printer to the Dell website for
analysis. Online Diagnostics Technical Support examines the information, diagnoses the
problem, and proposes a solution. If the problem is not resolved with the solution, Online
Diagnostics Technical Support assists you in opening a Service Request with Customer Support.
Online Diagnostics provides support to users, while eliminating many of the help calls requesting
printer support. Online Diagnostics Technical Support saves you time for more critical tasks.
