When to use the printer control panel
Hewlett-Packard has designed the printer control panel to facilitate
setting up default printer settings and to make printing selections
when your software does not provide them.
Use the printer control panel for overall configuration requirements, to
obtain printer status information, and to perform the following
procedures:
configure input trays for media type and size
take the printer online or offline
print configuration pages and menu maps
change printer default settings
verify available fonts
Software applications that provide print option commands allow you
to control print jobs through the software application rather than by
changing the printer control panel settings. The degree of control
varies among applications. Software commands override printer
control panel settings for all Printing Menu and most Configuration
Menu items.
Note For information about controlling the printer in a network environment,
see the HP JetDirect Print Server AdministratorsGuide.
