This chapter explains the printer properties, and how to make changes to the printer settings.
PCL - Accessing the Printer Properties

There are two methods to open the [Printer Properties] dialog box.
Making printer default settings
To make the printer default settings, open the [Printer Properties] dialog box from the [Printers] window.
• You cannot change the printer default settings for individual users. Settings made in the [Printer
Properties] dialog box are applied to all users.
1. On the [Start] menu, point to [Settings], and then click [Printers].
The [Printers] window appears.
2. Click the icon of the printer you want to use.
3. On the [File] menu, click [Properties].
4. Make the settings you require, and then click [OK].
• With some applications, the printer driver settings are not applied, and the application's own default
settings are applied.
• For details, see the printer driver Help.
Making printer settings from an application
You can make printer settings for a specific application.
To make printer settings for a specific application, open the [Printer Properties] dialog box from that
application. The following procedure explains making printer settings for Windows 95 / 98 / Me
WordPad as an example of how to make printer settings for a specific application.
