Default Guys, new keg, wanting to fine-tune the temperature and pressure

Last keg was in there during winter so the weather just kept the beer ice cold for me. Now its getting warner so I have to fine tune my fridge temperature and want to redo my pressure as well. Need it ready by Saturday evening for my graduation party

Ive got one of those 80s refrigerators with the a-e and 0-9 adjustment style controls. I kept playing with it but it only kept the liquid temp of the fridge at 40 so I turned the controls way down to see where my min temp is at. Hopefully it works

I also want to play with my regulator so its easy for the guests to pour a beer without getting foam everywhere. I think its at 14psi or so right now. What pressure should I keep it at? Im just unsure if if I keep it too low the beer will be flat.

Another thing I was told was adjust it to 30 psi, pour 2 pitchers worth of foam and then leave it at 7-10 psi and should have no problems after that.
