Understanding the operator panel
When you select a new setting from the operator panel, the asterisk moves next to the selected
setting to identify it as the current user default.
User defaults are the settings you select for different printer functions and store in printer memory.
Once stored, these settings remain active until new ones are stored or the factory defaults are
restored.
Note: Settings you choose from your software application may override the settings you
select from the operator panel.
Menus Disabled
If your printer is configured as a network printer available to a number of users, Menus Disabled
may appear when you press Menu from the Ready state. Disabling the menus prevents users from
using the operator panel to inadvertently change a printer default that has been set by the person
managing the printer. You can still use Print and Hold features, clear messages, and select items
from the Job Menu when printing a job, but you cannot change other printer settings. You can,
however, use your printer driver to override printer defaults and select settings for individual print
jobs.
