About the Remote Control Panel
DOS users have access to many printer features through specific DOS printer drivers; however, many software manufactures do not develop printer drivers for their software programmes. Your printer provides the software control panel for improved printer control when DOS printer drivers are not available or when certain print settings are not available through DOS software programmes.
NOTE: The printer’s Remote Control Panel is not a printer driver. It should be used to set print settings that are not available through DOS software programmes.
