Configuration Overview
To print data, the printer must respond correctly to signals and
commands received from the host computer. Configuration is the
process of matching the printer's operating characteristics to those
of the host computer and to specific tasks, such as printing labels or
printing on different sizes of paper. The characteristics which define
the printer's response to signals and commands received from the
host computer are called configuration parameters.
You can configure the printer using the configuration menus and
the control panel or by sending control codes in the data stream
from a host computer attached to the printer. This chapter provides
an introduction to configuring the printer and includes the
configuration menus available (depending on which emulation you
have installed in the printer).
IMPORTANT
Configuration directly affects printer operation. Do not change
the configuration of your printer until you are thoroughly
familiar with the procedures in this chapter.
