							Using the printer control panel in shared environments
If your printer is shared with other users, adhere to the following guidelines to ensure successful printer
operation:
● Consult your system administrator before making changes to control-panel settings. Changing
control-panel settings coul
d affect other print jobs.
● Coordinate with other users before changing the 
default printer font or downloading soft fonts.
Coordinating these operations conserves memory and avoids unexpected printer output.
● Be aware that switching printer personalities, such 
as switching emulated PostScript to PCL, affects
the printed output for other users.
NOTE Your network operating system might automat ically protect each user’s print job from
the effects of other print jobs. Consult your system administrator for more information.
