Configuration Procedure
Most configuration options are selected from the control panel menu. To change the configuraF tion from the control panel, the printer must be powered up, off line (OFFLINE READY), and the control panel ENTER switch enabled (unlocked). The current configuration may be examF ined - but not changed - by leaving the ENTER switch locked.
The basic configuration procedure requires pressing MENU DOWN and NEXT/PREV to arF rive at the desired menu. The parameters associated with that menu are accessed by pressing MENU DOWN again, at which time the currently active parameter or a submenu is displayed. NEXT and PREV are used to sequentially list all the parameters or submenus available within that menu. When the currently active value is shown on the display, it will be indicated with an asterisk (*) next to it. Pressing ENTER selects the parameter visible on the display, and reF places the previous parameter. The Control Panel Configuration Diagram, which illustrates all configuration menus and values, is provided at the end of this chapter. Thoroughly review these diagrams to understand the configuration menu hierarchy and the control panel buttons to select individual menus and parameter values.
The following general procedure can be used to reconfigure the printer from the control panel:
1.Obtain a current configuration printout as described in the Configuration Printout secF tion of this chapter.
2.Determine the parameter values that must be changed to meet your requirements. Refer to the Control Panel Configuration Diagram for an illustration of the parameter values and the procedure required to select and display the values.
3.Place the printer off line and raise the printer cover. Enable the ENTER switch by pressF ing MENU UP and MENU DOWN simultaneously until the ENTER SWITCH NOT LOCKED message appears briefly in the LCD message display.
4.Select and display the desired menu by pressing MENU DOWN and then NEXT or PREV until the name of the menu appears in the LCD message display.
5.Select and display the required value(s) for the selected menu item by pressing MENU DOWN and then NEXT or PREV until the value appears in the LCD message display.
6.Save the selected value(s) by pressing ENTER.
7.After all parameters have been changed as required, select SAVE PARAMETERS from Level II of the main menu and press ENTER. This will save the current parameter values as the powerup values.
8.Press CLEAR to place the printer off line. Disable the ENTER switch by pressing MENU UP and MENU DOWN simultaneously. ENTER SWITCH LOCKED will appear briefly in the LCD message display.
9.Close the printer cover and place the printer on line.
