A system and method for visually encoding related functions on a multi-function document output device control interface is provided. A set of main functions are configured as hardware buttons, capable of being distinguished from each other through the use of backlighting. The color associated with the backlighting for each function button is unique and used in an associated visual interface display, such as a touch-screen interface, to distinguish secondary functions corresponding to the main function selected. The visual interface display then depicts to the associated user options or preferences as icons, tabs, or the like, each visualized in a color or shade of color associated with the primary function.
