Chapter 2: Changing printer settings

Using the

operator panel

The operator panel on the top of your printer has a 2-line

by 16-character liquid crystal display (LCD), five buttons,

and one indicator light.

The light indicates whether the printer power is on and

whether the printer is idle or busy processing a job.

Use the five operator panel buttons to open a menu, scroll

through a list of values, select printer settings, and clear

error messages. Detailed instructions for changing a

printer setting begin on page 9.
