Printing the menu settings page
Complete the following steps to print a list of the current user default settings and installed printer options:
1Make sure the printer power is on and the Ready status message appears.
2Press Menu until you see Utilities Menu, and then press Select.
3Press Menu until you see Print Menus, and then press Select.
The message Printing Menu Settings appears and remains until the page prints. The printer returns to Ready when the page or pages finish printing.
If a message appears, see Understanding printer messages for more information.
The diagram in Using printer menus shows the menu items in each menu.
An asterisk (*) next to a value indicates the factory default setting. Factory defaults may differ for different countries.
Factory defaults are the function settings in effect the first time you turn your printer on. These remain in effect until you change them. Factory defaults are restored if you select the Restore value for the Factory Defaults menu item in the Utilities Menu. See Utilities Menu for more information.
When you select a new setting from the operator panel, the asterisk moves next to the selected setting to identify it as the current user default.
User defaults are the settings you select for different printer functions and store in printer memory. Once stored, these settings remain active until new ones are stored or the factory defaults are restored.
Note: Settings you choose from your software application may override the settings you select from the operator panel.
Menus Disabled
If your printer is configured as a network printer available to a number of users, Menus Disabled may appear when you press Menu from the Ready state. Disabling the menus prevents users from using the operator panel to inadvertently change a printer default that has been set by the person managing the printer. You can still use Print and Hold features, clear messages, and select items from the Job Menu when printing a job, but you cannot change other printer settings. You can, however, use your printer driver to override printer defaults and select settings for individual print jobs.
