Displaying the Printer Properties

There are two ways to display the printer’s properties. Displaying and setting the printer properties vary according to how the settings take effect for printing. Also the tabs displayed vary depending on how you display the printer properties.

Setting Initial Values of Print Options

Setting the print options by viewing the printer properties from the Printers folder within the Windows Start menu will establish the initial values of the print options. For example, the paper size setting you most commonly use, optional device settings, user information settings, etc, are settings you will not want to change every time you print. It is convenient to set these print options as initial values.
