Using the Printer Driver With Windows NT 4.0

There are two ways to access the printer driver: from your Windows applications or from the Start menu. When you access the printer driver from a Windows application, any settings you make apply only to the application you are using. See “Accessing the printer driver from Windows applications,” below. When you access the printer driver from the Start menu, the printer driver settings you make apply to all your applications. See “Accessing the printer driver from the Start menu,” on page 4-14. To check and change printer driver settings, see “Printer driver settings overview” on page 4-14.

Note:

While many Windows applications override the settings made with the printer driver, some do not; so you must verify that the printer driver settings match your requirements.
