General settings

Color mode: With supported T-series printers, you can select color, grayscale, or pure black and white (initially set automatically from the color mode detected in the image).

With supported Z-series printers, you can select color, grayscale with gray and black inks only, or grayscale with the full set of inks (initially set automatically from the color mode detected in the image).

Print quality: The available options are Fast, Normal, and Best. The default value is Normal. There may also be a check box for EconoMode in the Settings pane, unchecked by default. The job preparation pane does not show whether EconoMode is on or off.

Paper type: Your options are those provided by the printer. For each printer, you can choose in the preferences dialog whether the paper type can be set automatically or not. If not, you can choose the default paper type to be used by the printer.

If the paper type is set automatically (which is the default behavior), it works in the same way as the other automatic settings, and you can still choose to set the paper type manually for one or more pages.

If the paper type is not set automatically, it remains set to the default type unless you change it manually.

How can I change and assign paper types?

In the print settings (general settings).

Cropping

You can select no cropping, crop white areas around the edges of the image, or crop to a particular page size.

TIP: The ability to crop white border areas automatically can save you a lot of work compared with doing the same task manually for each page.

If the page size is set automatically and you crop to a different page size, that becomes the new page size. However, if you have set the page size manually, cropping does not change it.

After cropping, you can select no cropping to restore the original image size.

Page options

Scale: You can rescale the image to a different size—to a percentage of its original size, to fit a particular page size, or to fit the current roll.
