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:

During a scan job, the scanner finishes scanning the

During a print job, the print media path is cleared before
the printing stops.
Stopping appears on the LCD during this process.

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

Use the LCD touch-screen home screen buttons to open the Copy, Fax, E-mail, or FTP menus. Once in a menu, use other

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

feeder like any other tray. If a print

FirstThe 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.

Paper Loading
These menu items are used to set the loading orientation for each print media type. A source is loaded with preprinted print
media, and then the MFP can be notified that the print media is loaded for duplex (two-sided) printing. Use the application
software to indicate simplex (one-sided) printing. When simplex printing is selected, the MFP automatically inserts blank
pages to print the simplex job correctly.
Paper Loading is only shown on the LCD if a duplex unit is installed.

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

buttons to exit (wake up) from this mode.
