Using the Configuration Menu
This section covers how to password-protect menus, how to select
options, and how to enter and save values.
Password-protected Menus
The Operator Control and Administration menus may be
password-protected if an optional security card is used with the
printer. If the message window displays ENTER PASSWORD
when you use the Select key to enter a menu, a password is required;
see your system administrator. For information on entering
passwords, see “Entering Alphanumeric Values” later in this
chapter. If an invalid password is entered, the message window
flashes INVALID PASSWORD for three seconds, then returns you
to the CONFIGURATION menu. If you specify the correct
password, you’re allowed to enter the menu.
Selecting Options
Most menus offer an array of choices within each menu group. For
example, within the Administration menu group, there is a
Communications menu; within the Communications menu there is
a Parallel menu; within the Parallel menu, there is an Emulations
menu, and within the Emulations menu, there are several choices,
such as ESP, PostScript, HP-GL, Lineprinter, and PCL 5C (LN03+
and CCITT are listed if installed).
Table 4.1 shows how to select a menu option, using as an example
configuring the parallel interface for PostScript mode.
NOTE: The printer must be off line and idle for you to change
printer configuration. If the printer is not idle, jobs may
be lost.
