Programming via the
control panel

Apart from being able to control your printer via the applications software
you use, you can also program the printer directly. There are two pro-
gramming options you can use:

Programming via the control panel and

Programming via the interface using Escape sequences or control codes

Settings made by escape sequences have priority over settings
made in menu mode; therefore they will override these.

Programming via the interface gives you far greater freedom for
designing your printed pages, however, it is also a more sophisticated
method and requires some experience with programming languages and
printer control systems.

All programming via the interface is lost after you turn off the printer,
whereas the programming carried out using the control panel, is saved
and stored even after you turn off the printer.
