Control Panel Menus
Overview
You can perform most routine printing tasks from the computer
through the printer driver or software application. This is the most
convenient way to control the printer, and will override the printer’s
control panel settings. See the help files associated with the
software, or for more information on accessing the printer driver,
see page 16.
You can also control the printer by changing settings in the printer’s
control panel. Use the control panel to access printer features not
supported by the printer driver or software application.
Note Printer driver and software commands override the printer’s control
panel settings.
You can print a menu map from the control panel that shows the
current printer configuration (page 11). This appendix lists all the
items and possible values for the printer. (Default values are listed
in the “Item” column.)
