Programming via the
control panel
Apart from being able to control your printer via the applications soft-
ware you use, you can also program the printer directly. There are two
programming options you can use:
` Programming via the control panel.
` Programming via the interface using Escape sequences or control
codes.
Settings made by escape sequences have priority over settings made in
menu mode; therefore they will override these. Informations on Escape
sequences can be found in Appendix C, Emulations, page 107
Programming via the interface gives you far greater freedom for design-
ing your printed pages, however, it is also a more sophisticated method
and requires some experience with programming languages and printer
control systems.
All programming via the interface is lost after you turn off the printer,
whereas the programming carried out using the control panel, is saved
and stored even after you turn off the printer.
