Configure Device menu

This menu contains administrative functions. The CONFIGURE DEVICE menu allows the user to
change the default printing settings, adjust the print quality, and change the system configuration and
I/O options.

Printing submenu

Some items on this menu are available in the program or printer driver (if the appropriate driver is
installed). Program and printer-driver settings override control-panel settings. In general, it is better to
change these settings in the printer driver, if applicable.
