When you print from any software application, the printer uses the print job settings that are

specified in the Printing Preferences window. You can specify your most common printing options and

save the options for reuse so that you do not have to change the settings each time that you print.

For example, if you want to print on both sides of the paper for most jobs, specify 2-sided printing in

Printing Preferences.

• For Windows Server 2008 and later, click Start→Settings→Printers.
