Reading the Printer Configuration Page
The printer configuration page, as shown in Figure 10 on page 35, lists the following
information:
1. Menus—All of the menu settings currently active for your printer. Note that the list
of menus you see is determined by the options you have installed; for example,
you see the Ethernet Menu only when you have the Ethernet attachment installed.
For a description of all available menus, see Chapter 3, “Navigating Through the
Operator Panel Menus” on page 43.
2. Installed Options—The options and memory you have installed. In this example,
optional Envelope Feeder and Duplex unit are installed.
Important: IBM recommends printing the Printer Configuration Page whenever you
install a new option. Review Installed Options to make sure the printer recognizes
the option you installed. If the option is not listed, reinstall the option again.
3. Autosensed Paper—The paper loaded in various trays. In this example, letter
size paper is loaded in Tray 1 and 11 by 17 inch paper is loaded in Tray 2.
4. Printer Details—Page counts for the printer, the toner cartridge, the fuser, and
printer program code levels.
a. Page Count—The number of pages printed on the printer.
b. Toner CTR—The number of pages printed with the toner cartridge. (You
should reset the toner count whenever you replace the toner cartridge.) See
“Machine Information Menu” on page 80 for more information.
c. Fuser CTR—The number of pages printed with the fuser. (You should reset
the fuser counter whenever you replace the fuser.) See “Machine Information
Menu” on page 80 for more information.
d. Code Levels—The printer program code version levels installed on the printer
for the printer controller, data stream languages, and option code. If you need
to update the printer's “operating system,” also called controller code, or add
an option, you may need to update the following software with different
versions:
e. CTL—The printer controller program code version. (If you need to update the
printer's “operating system,” also called controller code, you will need this
number.)
f. PCL—The PCL data stream version.
g. PS—The PostScript data stream version.
h. EN—The Ethernet version.
Note: If you have other options installed or network interface cards, the list of Code
Levels will be different from the following example.
