Quick Setup Menu
The purpose of the Quick Setup menu is to have the items that are most
frequently changed or entered during the installation of the printer in one
location. This is not a "quick access" menu, in that the items found here will
generally only be needed during the initial setup rather than on an ongoing
basis. Only those items where input is needed to enable printing from a host
system and establish rudimentary printing parameters are included. All other
menu selections not part of this section can be left in their default state to
achieve successful printing.
Most items displayed for selection in the Quick Setup menu dynamically
change depending on which Host Interface options are installed and selected
or which active emulation is selected. Only items that are routinely selected,
modified or confirmed during initial setup will be displayed (not full menus). In
most cases, the default settings provided throughout should be sufficient to
initiate successful printing and only need to be confirmed.
Changes made in the Quick Setup menu will have global impact. For
example, host interface settings made will carry forward and reflect in the
Host Interface menu as well. Similarly, changes made to any other parameter
will be universally applied (changing the default values) in all emulations or
locations where these settings are applicable.
An Active Emulation menu has been added. Depending on the emulations
installed or selected, a series of additional menus will appear dynamically,
depending on which emulation was chosen. The choice of emulations offered
depends on what emulations are included in the printer's software and have
been enabled by the Security Key.
As the active emulation is selected from either the Quick Setup Menu or from
the original Active Emulation menu location, the corresponding bottom menus
for the remaining emulations will be hidden. Only the menu tree for the
selected active emulation will be displayed.
If IPDS is installed, it will become the default emulation. There is no IPDS
specific menu items placed in the Quick Setup menu selections. However, the
user can define the ASCII settings as defined. If IPDS is not installed, then
ASCII Printer will be made the default selection. If ANSI is installed, then the
menu will provide the user with the choice between ANSI or ASCII Printer. If
either TN3270 or TN5250 are installed, this emulation becomes the default,
with all default values accepted.
