Choosing Basic Print Options

Before you print, you need to set basic printing properties. The EPSON driver offers automatic settings that optimize print quality and speed when you’re using EPSON media. You can also choose advanced settings for more control over your printer and color management options. See page 4-5 for instructions on advanced settings.

Follow these steps to make basic settings:

1.Start an application, open a document, and choose Print from the File menu. You see the Print dialog box.

2.Make sure your EPSON Stylus Pro 5500 printer is selected, and then click the Properties button. (If you see a Setup, Printer, or Options button, click it instead. Then click Properties on the next window.)
