you easily perform printing tasks. One of these applications is
called

The Printer Properties application has two tabs:
Paper
and
Document/Quality
. Each tab contains settings related to
the operation of your printer and its software.

application. This lets you change printer settings ONLY for the
document you are currently creating in the application.
