Navigating Menus
There are two types of menus: action menus and configuration menus.
Action menus contain a list of actions you can perform, such as printing a list of active
fonts or printing a printer configuration page. There are two action menus: the Test
Menu and the Machine Info Menu.
To work with action menus:
1. Make sure the printer is offline. If the printer is online, press the Online key to
take it offline.
2. Press the Menu key to display the menu you want.
3. Press the Item key to display the action item you want.
4. Press the Continue/Enter key to perform the action.
For an example of working with an action menu, see “Printing the Printer Configuration
Page” on page 13.
Configuration menus contain lists of items that define current settings for the printer,
such as default fonts, default input trays and output bins, and attachment configuration
settings.
To work with configuration menus:
1. Make sure the printer is offline. If the printer is online, press the Online key to
take it offline.
2. Press the Menu key to display the menu you want.
3. Press the Item key to display the item you want.
4. Press the Value key to display the value you want.
5. Press the Continue/Enter key to change the setting to the value currently
displayed in the message display area. An asterisk (*) appears next to the value
after it is selected.
Note: Once you select a new value, it stays selected until you change it or you reset
the printer defaults. Menu settings are saved when you power off the printer.
Important!
Many print applications allow you to specify values such as fonts, input trays, and
output bins. If you use your print application (or printer driver) to specify a value,
that value will be used and the default value set at the printer will be ignored.
