The message PRINTING... MENU MAP appears on the display until the printer finishes printing the menu map. The printer returns to the Ready state after printing the menu map.

You might want to store the menu map near the printer for reference. The content of the menu map varies, depending on the options currently installed in the printer. (Many of these values can be overridden from the printer driver or software application.)
