Using the Printer Control Panel in Shared

Environments

The printer control panel functions in a network or other shared-printer environment in the same way as it does when it is connected to a standalone computer. Follow these guidelines before you change printer control panel settings:

zSee the system administrator before making printer control panel changes. Any printer control panel changes could affect other print jobs.

zCoordinate setting the default printer font and downloading fonts with other users. Coordinating these operations conserves memory and reduces the chances of unexpected printer output.
