Display monitor The display monitor has a screen which displays the NPS graphical
user interface windows.
The graphical user interface allows you to interact with the printer
and to monitor its interaction with the various components. During a
print job, printer error messages may display to notify you of any
unexpected conditions.
Keyboard The keyboard consists of alphanumeric keys similar to a typewriter,
symbols and special character keys, an extended character set, and
function keys. The keyboard is one of your main methods of
communicating with the printer. You can use the keyboard to make
selections, and to enter commands that control functions such as
requesting sample prints, obtaining billing meter totals, shutting down
the system, and so forth.
Mouse The mouse is another main method of communicating with the
printer. The mouse has three buttons. The left and right buttons are
used to select NPS functions. The center button provides additional
functions that you will not be required to use. If your workstation has
an optical mouse, it must remain on its designated metallic pad to be
active. If the mouse has a roller ball instead of an optical sensor
underneath, it requires a non-metallic pad.
Note: Printer controller hardware configurations are subject to
upgrade.
