Quick Reference
Understanding the Operator Panel
The printer operator panel has two buttons and six lights (Continue is both a light and a button).
Lights indicate the status of the printer. Buttons are used to continue or cancel the current print job.
When the printer is turned on, all lights cycle as a self test is performed. Also, when the printer is
reset, or when a printer setting is changed in the menus, all lights cycle.

Using the printer resident Web page
The Lexmark™ E120n has a resident Web page, which can be accessed from the browser. To
access the resident Web page, type the printer’s IP address in the URL address field of the browser
(for example, http://192.168.236.24). The printer’s IP address can be found on the network setup
page of the User’s Guide.
Some resident Web page features include a real-time status window of the printer and details of the
printer’s configuration, such as current memory and engine code levels. If you have administrative
rights, you can also change printer settings.
Printing the menu settings and network setup page
To print the menu settings and network setup pages, press from the Ready state. The printer
automatically prints the menu settings and network setup pages.
A list of the printer settings and the current default values are printed on the menu settings page. The
current default settings are marked with an asterisk. The network setup page confirms the network
Status is “Connected” and lists the current network settings.
Restoring factory defaults
This function will return most of the settings back to their factory values. The display language and
the settings in the Network and USB menus are not returned to the factory defaults.
To restore the printer to the original factory defaults, press and hold for more than three
seconds.
Note: Before restoring the factory defaults, make sure the host computer or network has
stopped sending information to the printer.
