About Your Printer’s Default Settings
The default settings control many printer functions. While you can often set these functions through
your software or printer driver, you may sometimes need to change a default setting from the printer’s
control panel using the Default Setting mode.
Default Setting mode
The following table is the default settings and the options you can select in the Default Setting mode.
