Note

  • The procedure to open the printer properties dialog box may vary depending on the application. For details, see the manuals provided with the application you use.

  • With some applications, the printer driver settings are not used, and the application's own default settings are applied.

  • Any settings you make in the following procedure are valid for the current application only.

  • General users can change the properties displayed in the [Print] dialog box of an application. Settings made here are used as defaults when printing from this application.
