Changing Character Information
Sometimes, rather than selecting an option, you need to enter char-
acter information, like a number or a word.
Entering character information through the control panel is similar to
setting the time and date on a digital watch. Use the following keys to
change the current input character:
When you exit the character selection process, the printer verifies
character information and confirms it in the message window. If char-
acter information is valid, you’re returned to the previous menu; if it’s
invalid, you’re returned to the input field. Press the Menu key to can-
cel any changes to the character information.
If the current character information is longer than the value that you
need to enter, replace each extra character with a space. The printer
interprets a space at the end of character information as a blank.
For example, to change the HP-GL emulation scaling percent, press
the control panel keys in the order shown in the following table.

dow.)
