Using Print Properties

Opening Print Properties

Print Properties is the software that controls the printing function. You can change the settings in Print Properties based on the type of project you want to create. You can open Print Properties from almost any program:

1With a document open, click File ΠPrint.

2From the Print dialog, click Properties, Preferences, Options, or Setup.

Using the Save Settings menu

From the Save Settings menu, you can name and save the current Print Properties settings for future use. You can save up to five custom settings.

Using the “I Want To” menu

The “I Want To” menu contains a variety of task wizards (printing a photo, an envelope, a banner, a poster, or printing on both sides of the paper) to help you select the correct print settings for a project.

Using the Options menu

Use the Options menu to make changes to the Layout Options and Printing Status Options settings. For more information on these settings, open the tab dialog from the menu, and then click the Help button on the dialog.

The Options menu also provides direct links to different parts of the Solution Center as well as software version information.
