Software Adjustment Procedures

Saving and Restoring a Printer Configuration

Procedure Notes
If the control board is not being replaced with a new board, it is important to
keep the existing serial number as described in step 1.B on page 5-47.
If this procedure is being completed because the main control board was
replaced, note the following items:
• When the new control board is first connected, it will not have a serial
number. In this situation, do not delete the serial number entry as described
in step 1.B on page 5-47. Instead, verify that the serial number listed in the
script file corresponds to the serial number printed on the side of the printer's
transport.
• Use your own laptop or PC to complete this procedure. Do not perform this
procedure on the customer's PC. When the printer is first connected without
a serial number, it will create a duplicate instance of the driver with a Null
serial number. Even if the Null instance is deleted, some entries will remain.
This can cause future problems for the customer.
Backing Up the Printer Settings
