Setting up the printer

Checking and changing printer settings

Before you make a test print—the last step in setting up the printer— check that the printer settings are correct for the media you just loaded and for the mode in which you are going to operate the printer.

This section describes only how to check and set the mode and media options. For complete information about printer settings, see Chapter 3 in this guide.

You use the buttons on the printer’s display panel (shown below) to look at and change the printer settings.

If you have the PostScript version of the printer, the printer has two operating modes: PostScript and raster. The PostScript mode is the factory default.

To change the mode to raster:

1.Press Setup/Select when READY appears in the display panel.

2.Press Print to scroll down (or Cancel to scroll up) through the settings until SETUP:MODE appears.

3.Press Setup/Select to access the MODE options.
