Printer Settings
All the settings about the printer are listed with short descriptions. Default settings are marked with a dagger (
).
NOTE
Asterisks ( )
Settings marked with an asterisk ( ) are only available for the MF8580Cdw / MF8550Cdn / MF8540Cdn.
Priority of settings
Settings that are specified in an application or on the printer driver will override those specified on the machine. The settings
described in this section are especially useful if you are printing on an operating system such as UNIX on which the printer
drivers for the machine are not available.
Availability of settings
All the printer settings described in this section, except for <Paper Size Override> ( Paper Size Override), are only available
for PCL printing. Specifying these settings is unnecessary, for example, when you print using the UFRII LT printer driver.
