Appendix E - Saving a Configuration File
The printer can save and restore printer settings through the use of configuration files; here are
some highlights and restrictions:
•
Configuration files eliminate the need to make special repeated printer setups. Once
saved to a file, job changeovers become faster and easier with these programmed
presets.
•
Using unique alphanumeric filenames (up to eight characters), configuration files (C-
types) can be saved to and restored from the host or User Interface on Module Y.
•
Configuration files enable the host, via special DPL commands, to control parameters
previously accessible only from the User Interface (see the
Class Series Programmer’s
Manual
for details).
•
Regular host settings cannot be saved using the User Interface menu.
Note:
Configuration files will typically correspond to a particular printer and media application.
If a file will be shared among printers, DO NOT include unique parameters (such as
calibrations and adjustments) because those settings typically vary from printer to
printer.
When saving the file via the CONFIGURATION FILE / SAVE SETTING AS, the keys and
buttons function as follows:
Keys and Navigation Buttons
