Changing the Printer Settings

Print options consist of settings that determine the type of output for your document. As mentioned earlier, print options are initially installed with default settings, enabling you to print a document immediately. However, you may want to change the settings.

Typically, you would change the printer settings when you print a document. The following instructions summarise the procedures for changing the printer settings. For detailed information on the specific printer options, refer to later sections in this chapter.

To change the print options:

1.Within your Windows application, with your document open, click the print command.

2.In the print dialog box, click Properties.

3.On the Paper, Graphics, and Setting tabs, specify the printer options you prefer.

4.To save your changes and close the dialog box, click OK.

To save your changes and leave the dialog box open, click Apply. To close the dialog box without saving your changes, click Cancel.

An Alternative Method for Changing Printer Settings

You can access the printer driver options from the Windows desktop, before actually printing the document. The following information summarises this method of accessing printer options. For details, refer to your Windows user documentation.

From the Windows desktop, click Start, and then point to Settings. On the Settings menu, click Printers. In the Printers dialog box, click the Canon MultiPASS L60 printer. On the File menu, click Properties. Specify the appropriate changes.
