Enabling and disabling the front panel menu
The printer allows a system administrator to lock the front panel menu by
downloading a utility Þle. In this protected mode, you can print the pages in
the Help Pages menu, but cannot modify any settings in the rest of the menu.
For more information on enabling and disabling the front panel menu, refer
to the printerÕs CD-ROM or the World Wide Web.
When the front panel is enabled, all front panel menu selections are
available.
■ Press the Menu button. The front panel displays the following
message:
Help Pages
<---- ----> Menu
When the front panel is disabled and you press the Menu button, the display
shows only the pages in the Help Pages menu (without the heading):
Configuration Page
<---- ----> Print
To access the entire menu with the front panel disabled, you must use a
special key sequence to enter the menu.
■ Press and hold down the Menu button and press the Exit button.
The front panel displays the following message:
