Getting Acquainted with the Control Panel

Overview of menus

The printer has two types of menus:

Basic menus

Setup menus

The basic menus allow you to select frequently used printer options. These menus allow you to feed paper, select fonts, print quality, and character pitch, and reset the printer. In addition, one of the basic menus allows you to enter setup mode.

The setup menus – available in setup mode – allow you to specify the printer's default operating parameters (also called the power-on default settings). The setup menus allow you to set the printer's hardware conditions, top-of-form position, and various print characteristics. You can also perform some other special functions, such as printing a list of current parameter settings. To use the setup menus, see the section “Using the Setup Menus” on page E-14.

Points to remember about basic menus

You can use basic menus while the printer is either online or offline.

The changes you make using basic menus are temporary. The changes are not saved in the printer's permanent memory. (To permanently change the printer's default settings, use the SAVE function. See “Example of operations” on page E-16.)

Using the basic menus

The printer's four basic menus are each displayed in three panels on the LCD screen. This section shows the basic menus and summaries their functions and the effects of buttons on the menus. This section then describes common operations using the basic menus.
