Using the Compaq A1500 Settings Utility
Settings Utility Overview
The A1500 Settings Utility allows you to change the
default settings of your A1500 All-In-One. For
instance, if you make a copy by pressing the Copy
button and then Start, the default copy settings will be
used.
The default copy setting is Black Normal. If you
normally perform color copies, you can change the
default to Color Normal instead by using the Settings
Utility. You can customize dozens of settings to suit
your preferences.
You can always make a temporary change for a
specific job (for instance, changing the mode to Color
Best while performing a copy). When you are finished
with the current job, the A1500 will default back to the
settings you have chosen with the Settings Utility.
