System administrators can control user access to the front panel menus with the following utility files (see
Using Printer Utilities
for instructions on downloading utility files):
-
Macintosh
utility files:
-
Menu Short
(limits menu access)
-
Menu Long
(expands menus)
-
PC
utility files:
-
MENUSHRT.PS
(limits menu access)
-
MENULONG.PS
(expands menus)
The "short" utility files limit the menu items displayed on the front panel, thus preventing users from changing front panel settings that may affect the prints of other users. Users instead select printing features -- such as color corrections -- through their applications only. In the protected mode, users can still print the Consumables Page, Configuration Page, Startup Page, and Demonstration Page. The "long" utility files reset the front panel to display full menus and allow full access to the settings.
If you used the
Menu Short or
MENUSHRT.PS
file to limit the front panel menus, you can temporarily restore the full menus:
-
Press and hold
Menu; press the far right button.
-
Scroll the menus: Press the right or left arrow button.
-
When you press the far right button again, the front panel returns to the shortened form.
