Printer Configuration
Printers are generally shipped with all appropriate configuration settings pre-set
at the factory. The only time the user should need to change the printer
configuration is if a new option is installed or the firmware is changed. It is also
possible the user may need to run certain tests using the Configuration Menu.
The user configures the printer using a convenient Configuration Menu that is
printed on receipt paper. The Configuration Menu prints instructions and setting
options interactively as the user goes through the configuration process. The
following functions and parameters can be changed with the scrolling
