Chapter 3. Navigating Through the Operator Panel Menus
This chapter describes how to navigate through the printer menus. The following table
describes the basic function of each menu and lists the page where you can find more
information.
Notes:
1. Note that several of the menus and menu items listed in this book appear on your
operator panel only if you have a particular option installed. To see a list of menus
you can access and options you have installed, print a printer configuration page.
See “Example 1 — Printing the Printer Configuration Page” on page 32.
2. If you are unfamiliar with using the operator panel to work with menus, please read
“Using the Operator Panel Keys” on page 30 and “Navigating Menus — Two
Examples” on page 31 before continuing.
