8Using the Front Panel

Protected mode for the front panel menu

System administrators may choose to limit user access to front panel menus by downloading a utility file to the printer. The “lock” utility file prevents most menu items from being displayed on the front panel. The capability of limiting menu access is often useful when a system administrator needs to retain control of the printer’s settings. In the protected mode, users still have access to print the Consumables Page, Configuration Page, Startup Page, and Demonstration Page.

In the protected mode, you can still access the full menu structure through a combination of front panel button pushes. An “unlock” utility file can also be downloaded to the printer to unlock the front panel menu for user viewing.

To learn more about locking and unlocking the front panel menus,

refer to the topics on the printer’s CD-ROM or the Tektronix World Wide Web site or call the Tektronix Customer Support Hotline at 1-800-835-6100(from 6:00 am to 5:00 pm PST).
