About the Control Panel
The control panel, located on the top of the printer, allows you to direct the printer’s
operation. In addition, it displays the current status of the printer, including any
condition that needs your attention.
Status messages are listed in the Maintenance Guide and the User’s Guide.
Selecting a Message Window Language
When you receive your printer, the message window language is set to
English. However, status messages and configuration menus can be
displayed in the message window in Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, French,
German, Italian, Japanese (Katakana), Portuguese, and Spanish. Chinese
(Simplified), Chinese (Traditional), and Korean (Hangul), don’t display in the
control panel message window, but choosing them makes CrownView display
in the correct language.
