Printer Configuration

In order to print data, the printer must respond correctly to interface
signals and commands received from the host computer.
Configuration is the process of matching the printer's operating
characteristics to those of the host computer. The characteristics
that define the printer's response to signals and commands
received from the host computer are called configuration
parameters and are found in the configuration menus.
Configuration menu diagrams are shown later in this chapter.
Configuration parameters are retrieved from flash memory, or set
from the control panel. This chapter explains how to set and save
parameters with the control panel.
IMPORTANT
Configuration directly affects printer operation. Do not change
the configuration of your printer until you are thoroughly
familiar with the procedures in this chapter.

Unlocking And Locking The Configuration Menu

In order to configure the printer with the control panel, you need to
unlock the ENTER key, which is locked by default. The locked state
secures your configuration, preventing alteration.
