Select printer settings through your software
application or the printer driver
The optimal way to control the printer is through your software
application or the printer driver. Changing these settings affects only
your print job. Most software applications allow you to choose printing
selections from menus within the software application. These
selections override the selections on the printer control panel.
Select printer settings using the printer control panel
You can also control the printer through the keys and menus of the
printer control panel. Changing these settings affects all print jobs. If
you are sharing the printer, coordinate control panel changes with
other users. For more information, see Chapter 2
.
Note Software application and printer driver settings override printer control
panel settings.
