Epson LQ-2170 Changing the Default Settings

Changing the Default Settings
The default settings control many basic functions of the printer.
While you can control many of these functions through your
software or printer driver, you may sometimes need to change a
default setting from the printer’s control panel through the Default
Setting mode.

settings using the Default Setting mode.
