Configuring the control panel, printer driver, and ports
Your Elite 12ppm printer has numerous settings you can adjust to make it meet your
printing needs. However, many users are satisfied with the settings as supplied.
The sections of this manual on Macintosh and Windows list the steps you must take to
configure the computer to print. The rest of each section covers the optional changes you
can make. If you’re not aware of any special circumstances in your printing it’s unlikely
that you’ll need to make any optional changes.
However, if you need to make changes, there are three ways you can do this:
• Using the printer’s control panel menus (or GCC’s WebAdmin tool).
• Using the Printer Setup dialog box on your computer.
• In the Page Setup and Print dialog boxes of many applications.
The place where you make changes affects how widespread those changes will be.
• If you change settings in the Elite 12ppm’s control panel, this sets the default for all
computers using the printer. If you don’t make any control panel changes, the factory
defaults will be the default settings. If you make changes with GCC’s WebAdmin
utility, this has the same effect as if you made them at the printer’s control panel.
• If you change settings in the Printer Setup dialog boxes on a computer, the new
settings are now the defaults for all applications on the computer. If you change
something from “Printer’s Default,” this overrides the printer control panel defaults
for this computer only.
• If you change settings in the Page Setup or Print dialog boxes in an application, this
overrides any other settings for that feature.
❏Some changes that you make revert to the defaults as soon as you’ve printed
the document.
❏Other changes become the defaults every time you print that document.
❏Some will become the defaults every time you print from that application.
