Depends why the light is on. At my shop I've reset the light with a scan tool and drove through a drive cycle and inspected the vehicle. Unless it's a major problem or a sensor is showing zero reading you can usually put 20-60 highway majority miles and pass. Most vehicles require multiple consecutive failed emission readings before triggering the check engine light.

What causes the PO171 engine code in a Chevy Prizm?

FYI, I had a mechanice replace the O2 sensor and the check engine light came back on again. I then changed the air filter and took out the Mass Air Flow sensor and cleaned it with electrical parts cleaner and put it back in. I also added a fuel injector cleaner to a full tank of gas. I reset the light by removing the negative cable to the battery for 30 seconds. This worked well enough for the car to pass a NYS inspection.
