Once a selection is made, a summary will be printed, and the user will be asked to confirm the selection by pressing the FEED button. If not confirmed, the printer resets and the process starts over. The printer will not exit this mode until one of the predefined configurations is selected and accepted.

If confirmed, the selected configuration is recorded in the printer and made active, after which the printer then resets. Once a selected configuration is activated, the configuration will remain active until changed.

Note: It is possible to require that a configuration be activated before the printer can be used. In this case the printer will request a configuration be selected every time it is turned on until a valid configuration is actually selected. At that time the printer will operate normally.
