BACKGROUND PRINTING

Background printing allows you to print documents and continue to use your Mac at the same time. It does this by saving a temporary print file to your hard disk, and then sending it to the printer.

This has the advantage of freeing up your computer much more quickly, enabling you to do other things whilst your document is printing. The disadvantage of Background printing is that it is slower, and your computer’s performance may temporarily be affected whilst the print job is processed.

You can enable and disable Background printing on an individual print job basis by using the printer driver:

1.From the File menu, select Print.

2.From the pop-up menu, select Background Printing.

3.From Print In, select the Background option.

4.If you want to enable background printing as default, click Save Settings.

5.Click Print.
