Using MFP menus

Understanding the multifunction printer (MFP) control panel

Most print settings can be changed from the application in use or the print driver. Settings changed from the application or print driver apply only to the job being sent to the MFP.
Changes made to print settings from an application override changes made from the control panel.
If a setting cannot be changed from the application, use the MFP control panel, MarkVision™ Professional, or the Embedded Web Server (EWS) pages. Changing a setting from any of these makes that setting the user default.
The MFP control panel consists of:

8 Stop Cause the printing or scanning to stop.
During a scan job, the scanner finishes scanning the current page and then stops, which means paper may remain in the automatic document feeder (ADF).
During a print job, the print media path is cleared before the printing stops.
Stopping appears on the LCD during this process.

Copy button, press Backspace to delete the right-most digit of the value in the Copy Count. The default value of 1 appears if the entire number is deleted by pressing Backspace numerous times.
Within the Fax Destination List, press Backspace to delete the right-most digit of a number entered manually. It also deletes an entire shortcut entry. Once an entire line is deleted, another press of Backspace causes the cursor to move up one line.
Within the E-mail Destination List, press Backspace to delete the character to the left of the cursor. If the entry is in a shortcut, the entire entry is deleted.

Home screen

After the MFP is turned on and a short warm-up period occurs, the LCD shows the following basic screen, which is referred to as the home screen. Two examples are shown, one where the home screen is presented totally on one screen and another example where the down arrow button must be touched in order to access the next screen containing home screen functions.
Use the LCD touch-screen home screen buttons to open the Copy, Fax, E-mail, or FTP menus. Once in a menu, use other buttons to scroll through a list of menu items or values, select a value to change the user default setting, and respond to messages.

Factory defaults are the function settings in effect the first time the MFP is turned on. These remain in effect until they are changed. To restore factory defaults, select the Restore value from the Factory Defaults menu item.
When a value or setting is selected and saved, it is stored in MFP memory. Once stored, these settings remain active until new ones are stored or the factory defaults are restored. These settings are called user default settings since the user selects and saves them.
Note: Settings chosen for faxing, scanning, e-mailing, and copying, and settings for printing from the
application may override the user default settings.

The following menu map provides an overview of the menus and menu items available from the LCD. Select a menu or menu item for more details. For values or settings for each menu item, see the individual descriptions of menu items following the menu map.

Configure MP

This menu item is used to configure the multipurpose feeder as another source or manual feeder. If the multipurpose feeder is linked with another tray, the MFP can select print media from the multipurpose feeder before selecting print media from another tray.
Menu item Purpose Values and descriptions
Configure MP Determines when the MFP selects
print media loaded in the multipurpose feeder.
Cassette* The MFP treats the multipurpose
feeder like any other tray. If a print job requests a size or type that is only loaded in the multipurpose feeder, the MFP pulls print media from the multipurpose feeder for the job.
Manual The MFP treats the multipurpose
feeder like a manual feed tray, and Load Manual appears when a single sheet of print media needs to be inserted in the feeder.
First The MFP pulls print media from the
multipurpose feeder until it is empty, regardless of the source or size requested for the job.

Envelope Enhance

Use this setting to disable the optional envelope conditioner hardware when printing envelopes. This hardware significantly lessens the wrinkling or creasing of some envelopes.
Note: When printing envelopes a bubble may form between the envelope layers. When the bubble reaches
the end of the envelope during the fusing process, a wrinkle or crease forms. To prevent this situation, pressure on a roller in the fuser is released periodically. This is envelope conditioning.

TCP/IP

This menu item is used to view and change the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol settings. Internet Protocol (IP) specifies the format of packets, also called datagrams, and the addressing scheme. Most networks combine IP with a higher-level protocol called Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). TCP enables two hosts to establish a connection and exchange streams of data. TCP guarantees delivery of data and also guarantees that packets are delivered in the same order in which they were sent.

WINS Server Address A server handles host names by
assigning host names to IP addresses. Devices have a host name registered with the WINS server.
Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS) is a system that determines the IP address associated with a particular network computer. This is called name resolution. WINS supports network client and server computers running Windows and can provide name resolution for other computers set with special arrangements.
DNS Server Address Registers the host name with the
DNS server; enables name resolution for the e-mail server, FTP, and other host name entries.
Domain Name System (or Domain Name Service) [DNS] is an Internet service that translates domain names into IP addresses. Domain names are alphabetic; therefore, they are easier to remember. The Internet is really based on IP addresses. Each time a domain name is used, a DNS service must translate the name into the corresponding IP address.

Timeouts Specifies the amount of time

Note: Wait Timeout is only available when using PostScript emulation. This menu value has no effect on PCL emulation print jobs.

Disabled 2–240 (15*)
Power Saver Mode
Disabled 2–240 (60*)
Touch the LCD screen (soft buttons) or press any of the control panel hard buttons to exit (wake up) from this mode.
Disabled—Disables Standby Mode. 2–240—Specifies the amount of time in
minutes that the MFP waits before the LCD dims to 15% brightness.
It sets the number of minutes that pass after entering Standby Mode before the MFP goes into a reduced power state called Power Saver Mode.
If Standby Mode is disabled, which is considered a setting of 0, then Power Saver Mode is the number of minutes of inactivity that occurs before entering Power Saver Mode.
Print the menu settings page to determine the current Power Saver setting. When the MFP is in Power Saver Mode, it is still ready to receive print jobs.
Disabled—Disables Power Saver Mode. Disabled is not available if Energy Conserve is set to On.
2–240 (60*)—Specifies the amount of time after exiting Standby Mode or after finishing a print job before the MFP goes into Power Saver mode.
For example, select 15 to put the MFP in Power Saver mode 15 minutes after it finishes a print job. This uses much less energy, but requires more warm-up time for the MFP. Select 15 if your MFP shares an electrical circuit with room lighting and you notice lights flickering. Select a high value if the MFP is in constant use. Under most circumstances, this keeps the MFP ready to print with minimum warm-up time. Select a value between 1 and 240 minutes for a balance between energy consumption and a shorter warm-up period.
Note: When the MFP enters Power Saver Mode, for the entire duration in this mode, Screen Brightness is set to 15. Touch the LCD screen or press any of the control panel hard buttons to exit (wake up) from this mode.

x represents the number of the sheet being printed. A sheet is considered a front and back page of one piece of print media. A group of sheets is called a set. y represents the total number of sheets in a set.
a is the number of the current set printing. b is the total number of sets to be printed. For example, a user may send a 6-page duplex print job and select three copies to print, so there are three sheets to print for each job. This makes one set. Three sets must print before the user has the complete job.
