When to use Menu mode

normally select in the driver or software, plus other settings, directly through
the control panel.
Note:
❏ Some applications may send commands to the printer that override the Menu
settings. If you are not getting the results you expect, check your application’s
settings.
❏ To see the current Menu settings, print a status sheet. See "Printing a status
sheet" on page 136.
