Making printer default settings - the printer properties

Important

  • To change the printer's default settings (including settings for options), log on using an account that has Manage Printers permission. Members of the Administrator and Power Users groups have Manage Printers permission by default.

  • You cannot change the printer default settings for individual users. Settings made in the [Printer Properties] dialog box are applied to all users.

1On the [Start] menu, point to [Settings], and then click [Printers].

The [Printers] window appears.

2Click the icon of the printer you want to use.

3On the [File] menu, click [Properties].

The [Printer Properties] dialog box appears.

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

Note

  • The settings you make here are used as the default settings for all applications.

  • For details, see the printer driver Help.
