An asterisk (*) next to a value indicates the factory default setting. Factory defaults may differ for different
countries.

Factory defaults are the function settings in effect the first time you turn your printer on. These remain in
effect until you change them. Factory defaults are restored if you select the Restore value for the Factory
Defaults menu item in the Utilities Menu. See

Utilities Menu

for more information.

When you select a new setting from the operator panel, the asterisk moves next to the selected setting to
identify it as the current user default.

User defaults are the settings you select for different printer functions and store in printer memory. Once
stored, these settings remain active until new ones are stored or the factory defaults are restored.

NOTE:

Settings you choose from your software application may override the settings you select from

the operator panel.

printer settings

and then select the printer settings you want to change.

To copy your printer settings to another printer on the network, choose Copy Printer Settings from the
topics list, and then type the other printer's IP address.

If you do not know your printer IP address, it is specified on the network setup page. To print a network
setup page:

settings. (Factory defaults may vary for different countries.)
