Printer Settings
You can change most of the system settings from your software program. If your
printer is attached to the network, you can change settings from the Dell Printer
Configuration Web Tool. To launch the Dell Printer Configuration Web
Tool, type the printer's IP address in your web browser. To find your printer's IP
address, see
"
Printing Printer Settings Report.
"
Settings from the software program update the default system settings for the
printer. Settings from the printer driver only apply to the job that you are
currently sending to the printer.
If you cannot change a setting from your software program, use the operator
panel, Tool Box or the Dell Printer Configuration Web Tool. Changing a
system setting from the operator panel, Tool Box or from the Dell Printer
Configuration Web Tool makes that setting the user default.

You can verify the detailed system settings by printing a
