Changing printer settings

Note: Printer settings selected from a software appli- cation or driver override default settings selected from the oper- ator panel.

Read this chapter for details about the printer settings you can change to control printer function. To make it easy for you to find the information you need, the chapter is orga- nized according to the structure of the printer operator panel menus. However, you can also change many of these settings from your application, from a Lexmark printer driver, or from the MarkVision printer utility.

If there is a printer feature you cannot control from the application or printer driver, use the printer operator panel or the remote operator panel available from MarkVi- sion. Keep in mind, however, that changing a printer set- ting from the operator panel or from MarkVision makes that setting the user default for all subsequent jobs sent to the printer. In most cases, settings you change from the application or driver apply only to the job you are prepar- ing to send to the printer.
