Verifying printer setup
Printing a menu settings page
Print a menu settings page to review the current menu settings and to verify if the printer options are installed
correctly.
Note:
If you have not made any menu item settings changes yet, then the menu settings page lists all the factory
default settings. Once you select and save other settings from the menus, they replace the factory default settings
as
user default settings
. A user default setting remains in effect until you access the menu again, choose another value,
and save it.
