# 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 [Printing Preferences] dialog box from that application. The following procedure explains how to make printer settings for a specific application using Windows XP WordPad as an example.

1. On the [File] menu, click [Print...].

   The [Print] dialog box appears.

2. In the [Select Printer] list, select the printer you want to use.

3. Click [Preferences].

   The [Printing Preferences] dialog box appears.

4. Make the settings you require, and then click [OK].

- Procedures for opening the [Printing Preferences] dialog box vary depending on the application. For details, see the manuals provided with the application.

- Depending on the applications, the printer default settings may not be applied.

- The printer settings you configure in the current application before printing might not be saved as the default settings.

- General users can change the properties displayed in the [Print] dialog box of an application. Settings made here are used as the defaults when printing from the application.

- For details, see the printer driver Help.
