Using the Touch Panel Display
The touch panel display on the control panel enables you to access and make settings by touching the screen directly. For example, if you wish to view and select from the Finishing options, press [Finishing] directly on the display. The machine will display the available Finishing options.

Press the touch panel display keys gently with your fingers. Do not use a pencil, ballpoint pen, or other sharp object that can scratch the surface of the touch panel display. Doing so may damage the touch panel display.

If the touch panel display is difficult to view, use the Display Contrast dial on the control panel. Turn the dial clockwise or counterclockwise to obtain the desired contrast.

Entering Characters Using a USB Keyboard
Instead of using the on-screen keyboard, you can also use a standard USB keyboard to enter characters.
|
IMPORTANT
|
|
Make sure that the shape of the USB keyboard connector meets USB specifications. Inserting a connector that does not meet USB specifications may damage the USB port.
Do not insert the connector of the USB keyboard into the USB port at an angle.
Some USB keyboards may not operate correctly.
|
|
NOTE
|
|
The USB keyboard can be disconnected from the machine at any time. No special operation is required to remove it.
|
Using a USB Keyboard
Entering characters using the USB keyboard is easy. However, keep in mind the following differences from the on-screen keyboard:
Only ASCII characters can be entered from the USB keyboard.
You do not need to change the entry mode. When the entry mode drop-down list is displayed on the screen, you cannot enter characters from the USB keyboard.
Single key operations cannot be combined using both the USB keyboard and the on-screen keyboard. For example, pressing [Shift] on the touch panel display while entering characters <usb> from the USB keyboard results in the lowercase entry <usb>, not the uppercase <USB>.
Even when using a USB keyboard, you must press [OK] on the touch panel display when you have entered all the desired characters. The Enter key of the USB keyboard is used only to enter line breaks.
Keys that are not included in the on-screen keyboard, such as Delete, End, Tab, Esc, and function keys, cannot be used on the USB keyboard.
|
NOTE
|
|
The key entry sound made when entering characters using the USB keyboard can be controlled just as with the on-screen keyboard. (Volume Control)
