Printer Settings in Windows ________
Your printer’s operator panel menus provide access to many options.
The Windows printer driver also contains settings for many of these items. Where items in the printer driver are the same as those in the operator panel menus, and you print documents from Windows, the settings in the Windows printer driver will override those settings in the operator panel menus.
Printing preferences in Windows applications
When you choose to print your document from a Windows application program a Print dialog box appears. This dialog usually specifies the name of the printer on which you will print your document. Next to the printer name is a Properties button.
When you click Properties a new window opens which contains a short list of the printer settings available in the driver, which you can choose for this document. The settings available from within your application are only those which you may want to change for specific applications or documents. Settings you change here will usually only last for as long as the particular application program is running.
