Programmable LCD Settings
In addition to the status icons, the LCD on the control pan-
el can display many of the printer’s settings and functions as
text. Applications can be written to allow the user to view and
/or modify these settings using the scroll and select keys on
the display. Refer to the tables on the following pages for a
partial set of printer features that can be programmed to dis-
play on the LCD.
The LCD has a backlighting option which allows viewing of
the screen in a dark environment, or provides better contrast
in a very bright environment. Use of the display backlight will
decrease the time the printer will run between charges. Refer
to the section “Extending Battery Life” for more information.
