Control Panel Menus
This section discusses the menus and how to access and select values from them
for formatting documents, controlling print operations, or testing the printer.
The four main menus are Operator, Config, Test, and Help.
Categories, Parameters and Selections
Within the Operator, Config, and Test menus, there are a number of
categories

Within some categories there are sub-categories. Within each of these catego-

parameters

execute a function upon pressing Enter, or in other cases, it displays a list of
options
for that parameter.
The Help menu has no categories or parameters. You'll use this menu to print
out a list of all menus, categories, parameters and options.
