The Control Panel
The EPL-6000 control panel gives you control over many printer
functions, including interface settings, font selection, and paper size.
The control panel is made up of three elements: an LCD (liquid
crystal display), Lights, and buttons. The buttons let you select
options for SelecType printer functions, while the indicator lights
and the display let you monitor the current status of the printer.
