Preparing to print

Often you can simply select the

Print

command in the application you are

using, click the

OK

button, and your document will be printed out. However,

sometimes you may need to change certain settings beforehand, such as the
default printer, which port a printer uses, which printer driver it uses, the paper
size, the paper source etc.

Settings are made by checking radio buttons, entering numbers into fields or by
clicking on the arrow by the side of a field and selecting an option from the list
that appears. All these settings, and how to make them, are fully explained in
the Microsoft Windows 95 User’s Guide.

Some settings, e.g. paper size and paper source, can be made within an
application when you select the

Print

command (see the next section:

Printing a document). However, settings made within an application only affect
printing from that application.

To change the default printer and to make general settings that will apply to any
application, proceed as follows:

Click on the

Start

button in the bottom lefthand corner of the screen.

Select

Settings

.

Release the mouse button on

Printers

.
