Settings and defaults The printer makes most printing decisions based on either temporary settings or permanent defaults. Note Settings sent from software applications override printer defaults. Table 18. Settings and defaults Setting or default Explanation Temporary setting A value set for the current print job by the software application. For example, a request from the 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 it receives another software request or until it is reset. Control panel default A value set at the control panel when you select a menu item.
An asterisk appears, indicating the default setting. The printer retains this default when it is turned off. Factory default The value set for each menu item at the factory. Factory defaults are listed in the item column in the menu tables starting on page 52. Setting the display language 1 Press and hold S ELECT while turning on the printer.
