Personalizing Your Printing Parameters
Always make sure that the Paper type, Paper size and Source printer driver settings suit the characteristics of the
printing media you wish to use. In particular, the printer driver's colour adjustment is specifically set for the single
media handled by the printer. If the settings of these parameters are incorrect a deterioration in printing quality may
result.
1. To access the printer driver settings:
In the Desktop window, click on Start, highlight Settings and then click on Printers. Click the right mouse button
on the machine's printer driver icon, and click on Properties to access the driver's properties.
2. Click on the Settings tab.
A screen appears presenting all the parameters that may be used to make printer settings.
A full description of these functions is provided in the on-line documentation installed together with the printer
driver.
3. Any changes made to the parameter settings require confirmation before being saved. To confirm the new
settings, click on the Apply button at the bottom of the screen.
4. Click on OK to exit from the Properties card and save the customized parameters or press Cancel to exit from
the Properties card without saving the changes made.
The Printer Monitor button gives immediate access to the Printer Care and Status functions.
The Restore Defaults button, situated at the bottom of the screen, restores the factory settings.
