Password Protection of Parameters

The printer has four levels of passwords. When you enter Setup mode on the control panel,
only those parameters that are not password-protected are displayed. To see more parameters,
you must enter an appropriate password at the

ADVANCED SETUP

prompt. After you enter a

password correctly, you do not have to enter it again until you leave and reenter Setup mode.

When you are prompted for a password, enter the password for the level displayed or for a
higher level. Entering a higher level password will unprotect the parameters for that level and
for all levels below it (for example, unprotecting level 4 parameters also unprotects levels 1, 2,
and 3).

The password levels and default passwords are shown in

Table 7

. To change the password for

any level, use the

^KP

ZPL II command. For more information, see

^KP, Define Password

on page 112

.
