Function Keys
The function keys permit you to configure the parameters,
or options, of the printer. You can access these parameters
via a structured menu which is displayed on the LCD. To
navigate through the options, use the UP, DOWN, NEXT,
and PREV switches. Press ENTER to select an option that
appears on the LCD.
When pressing the switches, you will hear a “beep” (the
“panel key sound”), which verifies contact.
NOTE: You can enable or disable the panel key sound via the
configuration menu.
For specific procedures and information regarding the configuration
menu, refer to the
User’s Manual.
The purpose of each function key (under normal printing mode) is
defined below.
