Overview of Printer Driver and Status Monitor

The printer driver lets you choose from a wide variety of settings to get the best printing
results. Status Monitor and the printer utilities help you check the printer and keep it in top
operating condition.

Accessing the Printer Driver for Windows

You can access the printer driver from most Windows applications, the Windows Start
menu, or the taskbar.

from that application.

To make settings that apply to all of your Windows applications, access the printer driver
from the Start menu or the taskbar.
