When the Setup menu appears, the control panel display acts like a
one-line window over the menu. Each line contains a different param-
eter. Turning the Select-dial scrolls the menu up or down below the
window. Each parameter is numbered so you can always tell where
you are in the menu.

Next to each parameter is the current setting for that parameter. Holding
down the Alt button and turning the Select-dial cycles through the pos-
sible settings. The setting that is displayed when you release the Alt
button becomes the current setting. When you change a setting, the
printer beeps to confirm the change.

To leave the Setup menu and redisplay the status message, press the
Setup button again. If you display the Setup menu but do not use it for
more than one minute, the status message reappears automatically.

You can change the current settings as required, then save them for use
at a later time. You can also specify the power-on defaults for the
printer to use. You can print the Setup menu using the Status button.
