Chapter 3 Changing Parameters
Saving Your New Configuration
A configuration must be saved in order to load it later. You can save up to
eight configurations to meet different print job requirements. For example:
Config 1: Selects Standard density, 10 CPI, 6 LPI, 11-inch forms
Config 2: Selects Sparse density, 10 CPI, 8 LPI, 8-inch forms
The configurations are saved and stored in memory; they will not be lost if you
power off the printer. Later, you can load one of the configurations for a
specific print job. This eliminates the need to change settings (LPI, forms
length, etc.) for each new job. See page 60 for information about loading
configurations. You may want to print your configurations (page 58) and store
them in a safe place, such as inside the printer cabinet.
If you are going to change and save parameters for both the PCL-II and
LinePrinter Plus emulations, remember to save the changes for the PCL-II
emulation before you select LP Plus as the active emulation (page 79) or vice
versa. Once you change active emulations, any changes to the previously
selected emulation will be erased unless they have been saved.
If you do not save your configuration before you turn off the printer, all of the
new parameters will be erased. When you turn the printer on again, the
power-up configuration will load. If no configurations have been designated as
the power-up configuration, the factory configuration will load.
If the Protect Configs. parameter is enabled, the new configuration will not be
saved unless the existing configuration has been deleted. See page 66 for
details.
