Default Settings - Oki B8300 User Manual

Default settings

The default settings allow detailed print conditions to be set for printing without any printer driver (for
example, printing from MS-DOS and printing from a computer without any printer driver installed). The
setting items are shown below.
While some items can be set either in the printer driver or on the operator panel, values set in the printer
driver override those set on the panel. Use the printer driver to set options where possible.
