Introduction

This chapter begins by listing and describing the different ways you 
can configure your printer to meet your special printing needs.

The next section describes how to use the printer control panel to 
access the configuration menu and how to make configuration 
changes.

The rest of the chapter provides basic printer configuration informa-
tion about all configuration menu options. Menu options discussed in 
this chapter are grouped according to task. After each option is intro-
duced, a table lists the option’s location in the configuration menu, the 
available choices for that option, and the factory default (the value set 
at the factory).

Methods of Configuration

You have four major ways to configure your printer to meet your print-
ing needs. In order of priority, they are

n

Through an application

n

Through PS Executive Series Utilities

n

Through printer commands

n

Through the printer control panel

n

Through a remote console (for network users)

Using an Application

Using your application is the best way to control your printer since 
most printing is done on a per-job basis. This helps prevent confusion 
in network environments and saves you from making changes at the 
printer control panel. Your application documentation explains how to 
control your printer settings: probably by choosing options from a 
printing menu.
