Saving Configurations
You can establish two user-defined groups of menu settings—CFG1 and CFG2—then
switch back and forth between them.
When you first start up your printer, both CFG1 and CFG2 are set to the same settings as
the factory settings. You will see CFG1 (Configuration 1) at the end of the second line of
the printer display.
If you enter the menu and change settings, the new settings will automatically be stored
under the configuration—CFG1 or CFG2—which appears on the second line of the
display when you make the changes.
