When you click the Properties button from your application’s Print dialogue, the driver
window opens to allow you to specify your printing preferences for this document.
1. Paper size should be the same as the page size of your
document (unless you wish to scale the printout to fit
another size), and should also be the same as the size
of paper you will feed into the printer.
2. You can choose the source of the paper to feed. You
can also click on the appropriate part of the screen
graphic to select your preferred tray.
3. If applicable, the setting for paper weight should match
the type of paper on which you intend to print.
4. A variety of document finishing options can be
selected, such as normal one page per sheet, or N-up
(where N can be any number up to 16) for printing
scaled down pages at more than one page per sheet.
Booklet printing prints two pages per sheet on each side of the paper so that when
folded they make up a booklet. Booklet printing requires the duplex unit to be
installed in your printer. Poster printing will print large pages as tiles spread over
multiple sheets.
5. For two-sided printing, you can choose to flip the page by the long edge or the short
edge. Of course, this requires that a duplex unit be installed in your printer.
6. If you have changed some printing preferences before and saved them as a set, you
can recall them to avoid having to set them individually each time you need them.
7. A single on-screen button restores the default settings.
