Initializing NVRAM for Network Settings
You can change most system settings from your software programs. If your printer is attached to the network, you can change settings from the Dell Printer
Configuration Web Tool. To launch the Dell Printer Configuration Web Tool, type the printer's IP address in your Web browser. To find your printer's IP
address, see
"Printing a Printer Settings Page" .
Settings from the software program update the default printer settings for the printer. Settings from the printer driver only apply to the job you are sending to
the printer.
If you cannot change a setting from your software program, use the operator panel, Tool Box or the Dell Printer Configuration Web Tool. Changing a printer
setting from the operator panel, Tool Box or from the Dell Printer Configuration Web Tool makes that setting the user default.
