Control panel menus

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. Any changes
that you make using the computer will override the printer control panel settings. See the
Help files associated with the software, or for more information on accessing the printer
driver, see

Printer software

.

You can also control the printer by changing settings in the printer control panel. Use the
control panel to access printer features not supported by the printer driver or software
application. Use the control panel to configure trays for paper size and type.
