When you start the User Setup Utility, it reads and displays the last settings that were sent to the printer by the utility.

Note:

The utility does not read the settings from the printer. It reads the settings from a file that was created the last time the utility was run, which are stored on your computer’s hard disk. If the EDS settings (or any other settings) have been changed using the printer’s control panel, those control panel settings will not be shown by the utility, and they will be replaced by the current User Setup Utility settings if you specify that current settings should be sent to the printer (page 39) when you exit the utility.

Now you can use the User Setup Utility to make the setup changes you want.

You can press F1 at any time to access the on-screen help for the setup utility.

Changing the General, Font, Paper and Adjust Settings

The following are basic operations to change settings in the General, Font, Paper and Adjust windows.

To select a window

Click on the name of the window you want to select (General, Font, Paper, Adjust, Port) by clicking on its name at the top of your computer’s screen. When you do, the corresponding window appears on the screen. You can also select a window by pressing a function key from F4 to F8.
