A method of improving diagnosis of repetitive quality faults appearing in prints from a printer having rotating elements uses an internal test page that has a lead edge, a trail edge, a ruled margin, a reference mark at the start of the ruled margin adjacent the lead edge, and labeled characteristic marks spaced from the reference mark according to the circumference of the various rotating elements. A user prints the test page and places it atop a print that has a repetitive quality fault, with the reference mark aligned with a first occurrence of the fault. The label of the characteristic mark adjacent a second occurrence of the fault identifies the rotating element probably causing the fault which needs to be replaced.
