2On the [File] menu, click [Print...].

The [Print] dialog box appears.

3Select the printer you want to use in the [Select Printer] list, and then click [Preferences].

Note

  • The procedure to open the printer's properties dialog box may vary depending on the application. For details, see the manuals provided with the application.

  • Any settings you configure in the procedure above are valid for the current application only.
