or when you have a document that is already formatted for printing on a
particular printer. There are two methods to print documents from the desktop. To
perform desktop printing, either:
•
Drag the icons of the documents you want to print to the desktop icon of the
printer you want to use.
or
•
Select the icons of the documents you want to print, then choose
from the
File
menu. When the
dialog box appears, select your print options, then
click the
button.
