Understanding the control panel buttons

The control panel has two layers of functionality:
• Layer 1, with the control panel cover closed, contains basic functions like FormFeed, Tear Off, and taking the printer
online or offline.
•
Layer 2, with the control panel cover open, contains more advanced functions like selecting a macro and changing
printer menu settings.
