Using printer menus
Understanding the printer operator panel
This section contains information about understanding the operator panel, changing printer settings,
and understanding operator panel menus.
You can change most printer settings from your software application or printer driver. Settings you
change from the application or printer driver apply only to the job you are preparing to send to the
printer.
Changes made to printer settings from a software application override changes made from the
printer operator panel.
If you cannot change a setting from your application, use the printer operator panel or the remote
operator panel available from MarkVision Professional. Changing a printer setting from the printer
operator panel or from MarkVision Professional makes that setting the user default.
The printer operator panel has a 2-line by 16-character liquid crystal display (LCD), five buttons, and
one indicator light that flashes when the printer is processing a job indicated by the Busy message.
Indicator light
The indicator light gives information about the status of your printer. If the light is:
• Off, the printer is off
• On, the printer is on, but idle
• Blinking, the printer is on and is busy (indicated also by a blinking Busy message)
Buttons
Use the five operator panel buttons to open a menu, scroll through a list of values, change printer
settings, and respond to printer messages.
The numbers 1 through 6 appear beside the operator panel buttons in this illustration. You use these
numbers to enter your personal identification number (PIN) after you send a confidential print job
from the printer driver. A confidential job is one type of job from the Print and Hold jobs. For more
information, see Using the Print and Hold function.
