Dell 3000cn Color Laser Printer - Manual (Page 74)

Printer Settings
You can change most printer settings from your software program or printer driver. If your printer is attached to the network,
you can change settings from the Dell Printer Configuration Web Tool. To launch the Dell Printer Configuration Web
Tool, type the printer IP address in your Web browser. Print a Printer Settings page to find your printer's IP address (see
" Printing a Printer Settings Page ").
Settings you change from the software or printer driver apply only to the job you are preparing to send to the printer.
Changes made to printer settings from an software program override changes made from the printer operator panel.
If you cannot change a setting from your software program, use the printer operator panel or the Dell Printer
Configuration Web Tool. Changing a printer setting from the printer operator panel or from the Dell Printer
Configuration Web Tool makes that setting the user default.

This asterisk indicates the factory default menu setting. These settings are the original printer settings. (Factory defaults may
vary for different countries.)

user default menu setting.
