Front Panel Settings and Defaults

Generally, select most print settings and set defaults from your application. Changing the front panel settings may affect the prints of other users. However, printing oversize or specialty media requires using the front panel.

The main user settings are TekColor Correction, Print Quality, and Printer Defaults (primarily Multi-Purpose Tray Setup: Media Size, Media Type). Other settings are

used for troubleshooting or printer setup.

To view or change front panel settings:

1When the front panel displays Ready, press Select then until you see the desired setting.

2Press Menu, then to scroll through the menu choices. An asterisk (*) indicates the current default setting.

3To change the printer default, press Select at the appropriate choice.

Note that print settings made from your computer with either the LaserWriter (Macintosh) or Windows (PC) driver (installable from the printer’s CD-ROM) override front panel settings or defaults.

Press i for information...

when you press , the following series of messages appear:
