Using printer menus

A number of menus are available to make it easy for you to change printer settings. The diagram shows the menu index on the control panel, the menus, and items available under each menu. The items in each menu and the values you can select are described in more detail later in this chapter.

Some menu items or values are displayed only if a specific option is installed on the printer. Other menu items may only be effective for a particular printer language. You can select these values at any time, but they only affect printer function when you have the optional equipment or the specified printer language.

Select a menu or menu item for more details.
