Instead of having a multitude of dip switches, all operator selectable features are accessable via the control panel and combined in the printer MENU.

This feature provides:

-easy handling of configuration (interface, etc.)

-quick parameter changes during an application

-a SAVE function to make changes permanent (until purposely reset), facilitating changes in default settings.

The menu has several levels:

-The first level contains the Main Functions

-Level 2 contains Sub-Functions

-Level 3 allows to select/confirm values and contains further Sub-Functions

-Level 4 allows to select/confirm values

For easy selection of paper source, font, pitch and macro, please refer to the Quick Settings section in this chapter.
