Create printing shortcuts

In addition to the printing shortcuts that are available in the Printing Shortcuts list in the print driver, you can create your own printing shortcuts to save time and ensure consistency between print jobs.

If you frequently print on transparency film, for example, you can create a printing shortcut by selecting the Presentation Printing shortcut, changing the paper type to HP Premium Inkjet Transparency Film, and then saving the modified shortcut under a new name; for example, Transparency Presentations. After creating the printing shortcut, simply select it when printing on transparency film rather than changing the print settings each time.
