Verifying printer setup

When all hardware and software options are installed and the printer is turned on, verify that the printer is set up
correctly by printing the following:
•
Menu settings page—Use this page to verify that all printer options are installed correctly. If an option you installed
is not listed, then it is not installed correctly. Remove the option, and then install it again.
• Network setup page—If your printer has networking support, then use this page to verify that the network
connection is working. This page also provides important information that aids network printing configuration.
