Understanding Default Settings; Default-Setting Mode - Epson FX-880+ Quick Manual

Default Settings
The default settings control many printer
functions. While you can often set these
functions through your software or printer
driver, you may sometimes need to change
a default setting from the printer's control
panel using the default-setting mode.
For a detailed description of the settings you
can change in the default-setting mode, see
"Understanding default settings." For
instructions on changing the settings, see
"Changing default settings."
