In Device Settings, you can select installed printing system options so the
associated features can be used with the printer driver. You can also match the
memory setting in the driver with the memory installed in your printing system,
which lets the driver manage font downloads more efficiently. Administrator,
User, PDL (Page Description Language), and Compatibility settings can also be
selected.
You can open Device Settings from any of the most commonly used Windows
operating systems.
Depending on your operating system:
Windows 8 and Windows Server 2012: open the Control Panel, and then
click View devices and printers.
Windows 7: click Start, and then click Devices and Printers.
Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, and Windows Server 2008 R2: click
Control Panel and then click or double-click Printers.
Windows XP and Windows Server 2003: click Start > Printers and Faxes.
Right-click your printing system model, then:
Windows 8, Windows 7, and Windows Server 2012: click Printer
properties.
Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows
XP, and Windows Server 2003: click Properties.
Click Device Settings.
Optional devices extend the capabilities of your printing system for source,
finishing, and job storage.
In a client/server environment, this feature is unavailable to a client logged in as
a restricted user.
You can set the printer driver to match the optional devices installed on your
printing system.
In Device Settings > Device options, select the check boxes for all installed
devices.
Click OK in the Properties dialog box.
