Using MFP menus
Understanding the multifunction printer (MFP) control panel
Most print settings can be changed from the application in use or the print driver. Settings changed from the application or
print driver apply only to the job being sent to the MFP.
Changes made to print settings from an application override changes made from the control panel.
If a setting cannot be changed from the application, use the MFP control panel, MarkVision™ Professional, or the
Embedded Web Server (EWS) pages. Changing a setting from any of these makes that setting the user default.
The MFP control panel consists of:

Factory defaults are the function settings in effect the first time the MFP is turned on. These remain in effect until they are
changed. Factory defaults are restored if the Restore value for the Factory Defaults menu item is selected.
When a value or setting is selected and saved for MFP functions, it is stored in MFP memory. Once stored, these settings
remain active until new ones are stored or the factory defaults are restored. These settings are called user default settings
since the user selects and saves them.
Note: Settings chosen for faxing, scanning, e-mailing, and copying, and settings for printing from the

show arrows since there are only three shortcuts listed which all appear on one screen. As the status message bar
indicates, it shows 1 to 3 entries of a total of 3 entries. If there were more entries, scrolling up and down with arrows would
be possible. Since none of the entries are selected, Delete Entry is an unavailable button since it is not active. Only the

Messages appear on the MFP control panel describing the current state of the MFP and indicating possible MFP problems
requiring intervention.
Status messages
Status messages provide information on the status of the MFP.
Message
Meaning
Action
Bin [x] Full
x represents the number of the
output bin that is full when the MFP
bins are linked.
Remove print media from the bins. The message
clears once the output level of the linked bins is no
longer full.
Busy
The MFP is busy receiving,
processing, or printing data.
Press Stop to access the job queue.
Flushing Buffer
Hex Trace
The MFP flushes corrupted data and
discards the current print job.
The MFP is in Hex Trace mode.
Exit Hex Trace to print jobs normally. To exit Hex
Trace, unplug the MFP.
Hex Trace isolates the source of a
print job problem. When Hex Trace is
active, all data sent to the MFP prints
in hexadecimal and character
representation.
Maintenance
The MFP maintenance counter has
exceeded its limit, so the MFP
requires maintenance.
Replace the maintenance items. If necessary, reset
the MFP maintenance counter.
Network
Network [x]
Network [x], [y]
A network interface is the active
communication link.
Wait for the message to clear.
Notes:
• The current interface appears on the Menu Settings
Page. Interfaces shown without an x or y means the
active host interface is a standard interface.
• x indicates the active interface is connected to the
MFP through PCI connector x.
• x, y indicates the active interface is connected to
the MFP through channel y on PCI connector x, or
that x equals 0 on the standard network interface.
Parallel
A parallel interface is the active
communication link.
Parallel [x]

Printing
The MFP is printing a job.
Printing page [x]
A sheet of print media moves
through the MFP to be printed.
x represents the number of the sheet
being printed. Even though a duplex
(two-sided) sheet has two sides,
called pages, it only counts as one
sheet.
Printing page [x],
copy [a]/[b]
A sheet of print media moves
through the MFP to be printed.
x represents the number of the sheet
being printed. Even though a duplex
sheet has two sides, called pages, it
only counts as one sheet. So, pages
are not counted, only sheets passing
through the MFP.
The total number of sheets in a set is
not known, but the number of sets is
known. For example, a user may
have requested that three copies
print, so there are three sets of
sheets, but the number of sheets is
unknown.
Printing page [x]/
[y], copy [a]/[b]
A sheet of print media moves
through the MFP to be printed.
x represents the number of the sheet
being printed. A sheet is considered
a front and back page of one piece of
print media. A group of sheets is
called a set. y represents the total
number of sheets in a set.
a is the number of the current set
printing. b is the total number of sets
to be printed. For example, a user
may send a 6-page duplex print job
and select three copies to print. So,
there are three sheets to print for
each job. This makes one set. Three
sets must print before the user has
the complete job.

bin name] Full
[bin name] specifies a previously
defined name for the bin, such as
Mary’s bin, and it is full.
Toner Low
The toner cartridge is low on toner.
• The message clears automatically when the cover
or door over the toner cartridge is opened or if the
MFP power is turned off and then on.
• Replace the toner cartridge. If it is not replaced, the
MFP issues the message again when the door or
cover is closed.
The Menu Settings Page shows the

of time for the MFP to read the level
of toner. Until the level is read, the
MFP does not show the message.
