Enabling and disabling front panel menus

System administrators may choose to limit user access to front panel menus by
downloading a utility file to the printer. The “lock” utility file prevents most menu
items from being displayed on the front panel. The capability of limiting menu
access is often useful when a system administrator needs to retain control of the
printer’s settings. For example, selections made on the printer’s front panel can
affect the prints of all users sharing the printer on a network. A system administrator
may want to disable the menus so users can only select printing features, such as
color corrections, through their applications on an individual basis. In the protected
mode, users still have access to print the Test Print, Configuration, and Startup
pages, as well as printer information.
