Verifying printer setup
When all hardware and software options are installed and the printer is turned on, verify that the printer is set
up correctly by printing the following:
• Menu settings page—Use this page to verify that all printer options are installed correctly. A list of installed
options appears toward the bottom of the page. If an option you installed is not listed, then it is not installed
correctly. Remove the option, and then install it again.
For more information, see the following:
– “Printing a menu settings page” on page 74 for non‑touch‑screen printer models
– “Printing a menu settings page” on page 122 or “Printing a menu settings page” on page 170 for
touch‑screen printer models
• Network setup page—Use this page to verify the network connection. This page also provides important
information that aids network printing configuration.
Note: Make sure your printer has Ethernet or wireless capability and is attached to a network.
