Using Print Properties

Print Properties is the software that controls the All-In-One printing function. You
can change the settings in Print Properties based on the type of project you want
to create. You can open Print Properties from almost any program:

1

From the program File menu, click Print.

2

In the Print dialog box, click Properties, Preferences, Options, or Setup
(depending on the program).

The Print Properties screen appears.

Note: Some programs open Print Properties differently.

The “I Want To” menu

The “I Want To” menu appears when you open Print Properties. It contains a
variety of task wizards to help you select the correct print settings for your project.
Close the menu for a full view of the Print Properties dialog box.

Print Properties tabs

All of the print settings are on the three main tabs of the Print Properties software:
Quality/Copies, Paper Setup, and Print Layout.

Note: For additional information about these settings, right-click a setting

on the screen, and then select the What’s This? item.

Save Settings menu

From the Save Settings menu, you can name and save the current Print
Properties settings for future use. You can save up to five custom settings.

Options menu

and Printing Status Options settings. For more information on these settings,
open the tab dialog box from the menu, and then click the Help button on the
dialog box.
