Settings and Defaults
The printer makes most printing decisions based on either temporary
settings or permanent defaults.
Note
Settings you send from software applications override printer defaults.
Setting or Default Explanation
Temporary setting A value set for the current print job by your software application. For
example, a request from your software to print three copies instead of the
control panel default value of one copy is a temporary setting. The printer
continues to use the temporary setting until you send another software
request or reset the printer.
Control panel default A value you set at the control panel by selecting a menu item, then
pressing [Enter]. An asterisk appears following the item’s name to indicate
that it is now the default. The printer retains this default when it is
switched off.
Factory default The value set for each menu item at the factory. Factory defaults are
marked with an asterisk in the menu tables on the pages that follow.
