Changing printer-control-panel configuration settings
By using the printer control panel, you can make changes to general printer configuration
default settings such as tray size and type, sleep delay, printer personality (language), and
jam recovery.
The printer-control-panel settings can also be changed from a computer by using the setting
page of the embedded Web server. The computer shows the same information that the
control panel shows. For more information, see
Using the embedded Web server.
CAUTION
Configuration settings seldom need to be changed. Hewlett-Packard Company recommends
that only the system administrator change configuration settings.
Changing control-panel settings
For a complete list of menu items and possible values, see Control panel menus. Certain
menu options appear only if the associated tray or accessory is installed. For example, the
EIO menu appears only if an EIO card is installed.

NOTE
Printer-driver settings override control-panel settings. Software program settings override
both printer-driver settings and control-panel settings. If you cannot gain access to a menu
or item, it is either not an option for the printer or you have not turned on the associated
higher-level option. See your network administrator if a function has been locked (Access
denied menus locked appears on the printer control-panel display).
Job storage limit
This option sets the limit for the maximum number of jobs that can be stored on the hard
drive at the printer. The maximum number allowed is 100, and the default value is 32.
NOTE
This option is only available if a hard drive is installed.
