Saving Your Configuration In A Custom Set
Saving Your Configuration In A Custom Set
Once you have changed all of the necessary parameters, it is recommended
you save them as a configuration that can be stored and loaded later for
future use. You can save your configurations to meet different print job
requirements.
The saved configurations (called custom sets) are stored in NVRAM—they
will not be lost if you power off the printer.
Later, you can load one of the configurations for a specific print job. This
eliminates the need to change settings, such as CPI and LPI, for each new
job. See page 86 about loading configurations.
You may want to print records of your configurations (page 69) and store
them in a safe place, such as inside the printer cabinet.
If you do not save your configuration before you power off the printer, all of the
new parameter values that have not been saved to NVRAM will be erased.
When you power the printer on again, the power-on configuration will load. If
no configuration has been designated as the power-on configuration, the
factory configuration will load.
NOTE: To avoid overwriting an existing custom set, the Protect Custom Sets
parameter must be set to ENABLE. See page 103 for details.
