Introduction
Printer control panel
The message display
The two-line, 16-digit display tells you what is happening inside the printer and shows
you the menus and settings which can be changed. The display keeps you informed
about the printer’s operational status, lets you make menu selections, warns you about
problems and identifies errors.
Printer control panel buttons
The table on page 12 is a short summary of what the buttons on the printer control panel
do. The first time you read through the table you may want to actually press the buttons
on the printer control panel to see how they operate.
Your software application program should send all the commands required to print
your documents.
Remember that the software application commands that determine page size,
font selection, page layout, page orientation, etc., override most of the printer
settings.
