Changing Print Settings

To view or change the print settings, access the properties or printing preferences dialog box of the printer driver. You can access the properties dialog box either from the application's [Print] dialog

box and the [Printers and Faxes] (Windows 98/Me/2000: [Printers]) folder, or the printing preferences dialog box from the [Printers and Faxes] (Windows 2000: [Printers]) folder.
Printing
To access the dialog box, follow the procedure below.
NOTE
The properties dialog box enables you to set up the printer configuration and configure the print settings for all Windows applications. The printing preferences dialog box enables you to specify the default settings for the printing options available when you print with the MF3110. (Only for Windows 2000/XP.)
The number of tabs displayed in the properties dialog box will vary, depending on the type of operating system you are using and the method you use to access the dialog box.
The method you use to access the dialog boxes determines how long the printing options remain in effect:
- If you access the dialog box from an application's [Print] dialog box, your selected printing options apply only to the current print job. They will not be stored when you close the application.
- If you access the dialog box from the [Printers and Faxes] (Windows 98/Me/2000: [Printers]) folder, selected printing options apply to all Windows applications and remain in effect until you change those settings.
