Language Commands

PostScript operators and HP PCL and HP-GL commands can enable
job-specific features your application or page description language
can’t access. Refer to your language documentation for specifics.

Using the Control Panel

Your printer is configured at the factory for the most typical printing
environments, so most users don't have to use the control panel
often. However, if you do need to change a printer setting for all print
jobs (not just on a per-job basis), you can do so through the control
panel. If you are working in a shared printing environment, your sys-
tem administrator should be the only person to make changes
through the printer's control panel.

The rest of this chapter explains how to use the printer control panel
and configuration menu.

Using a Remote Console

Many of the configuration choices that can be made at the control
panel can also be made through a remote console if you’re connected
to a network via the Ethernet interface or another optional network
interface. To avoid confusion in a shared printing environment, only
the system administrator should make configuration changes.

Note:

If a remote console has the printer off line, pressing the Online/

Offline key will not take effect until the console puts the printer back
on line.

QMS CrownNet Interface System Administrator’s Guide for

instructions on accessing Remote Console through the Ethernet
interface and the
