Chapter 3 Using the Operator Panel

This chapter provides the information you need to configure the Ecosys Color printer. In general you need to use the operator panel only to make default settings. You can make most changes to the printer settings using the printer driver trough the application software.

Changes to printer settings made using a software application override changes made using the operator panel.

Note

You can also rely on other printer utilities such as Kyocera Mita PrintMonitor if you need to change settings that are not available on the printer driver. It will allow you remotely access to printer settings. Printer utilities are supplied in the CD-ROM supplied with the printer.

The chapter describes the operator panel in detail, including its menus and the procedures for changing various printer settings.
