When you print from any software application, the printer uses the print job settings specified in the

Printing Preferences window. You can specify your most common printing options and save them so

that you do not have to change them every time you print.

For example, if you want to print on both sides of the paper for most jobs, in Printing Preferences,

specify 2-sided printing.

To select default printing options:

1. On your computer, navigate to the list of printers:

a. For Windows Vista, click Start→Control Panel→Hardware and Sound→Printers.

b. For Windows 7, click Start→Devices and Printers.

c. For Windows 8, click Control Panel→Devices and Printers.

Note:

If the Control Panel icon does not appear on the desktop, right-click on the

desktop, then select Personalize→Control Panel Home→Devices and Printers.

2. In the list, right-click the icon for your printer and click Printing Preferences.

3. In the Printing Preferences window, click a tab, select the options, then click OK to save.

For more information about Windows print driver options, in the Printing Preferences window,

click the Help button (?).
