Printing from Windows

When you want to print from your Windows application, you click the print icon or choose Print from the File menu. You can then choose which pages to print, the number of copies, and other options. The settings that describe your print job— whether you want to use color or black ink, for example—are part of your printer driver software.

The following sections tell you how to set printer options from Windows applications, how to change the default printer settings, and how to check your printer’s status.
