Understanding the Printer Parts
Understanding the Operator Panel
You can use your printer to do a variety of things. A few important things to note:
If the printer is connected to a computer, you can use either the printer operator panel or the printer software to
produce quality documents.
You do need to connect your printer to a computer to print, scan, or use the Save Photos to Computer function or
the Office File mode.
You do not need to connect your printer to a computer to make photocopies, send faxes, or print from memory cards
or a PictBridge-enabled camera.

The printer (whether it is connected to a computer or not) must be connected to a telephone line before you can

If you use a Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) modem for your computer, you must install a DSL filter on the
telephone line attached to your computer. For information about DSL filters, contact your DSL Service Provider.
