Printer Configuration
Printer Configuration
In order to print data, the printer must respond correctly to interface
signals and commands received from the host computer.
Configuration is the process of matching the printer’s operating
characteristics to that of the host computer. The characteristics that
define the printer’s response to signals and commands received
from the host computer are called configuration parameters and are
found in the configuration menus. Configuration menu diagrams are
shown later in this chapter.
Configuration parameters are retrieved from flash memory or set
from the control panel. This chapter explains how to set and save
parameters from the control panel.
IMPORTANT Configuration directly affects printer operation. Do not change
the configuration of your printer until you are thoroughly
familiar with the procedures in this chapter.
