Phaser 360


Enabling and disabling front panel menus
You can enable and disable the printing features menus on the printer's front panel. For example, selections made on the printer's front panel can affect the prints of all users sharing the printer on a network. A system administrator may want to disable the menus so users can only select printing features, such as color corrections, through their applications on an individual basis.


Note: If you have used the Menu Short (MENUSHRT.PS) file to disable the front panel menus, you can temporarily re-enable the menus by holding down the printer's front panel Menu button while pressing the Exit button. You can scroll through the menus as usual, however, when you press the Exit button again the front panel returns to the shortened form.
To enable or disable the front panel menus, use one of these methods:
