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.
•

network setup page to verify the network connection. This page also provides important information that aids
