Print setting priorities
Changes made to print settings are prioritized according to where the
changes are made, as follows:
Note The names of commands and dialog boxes may vary depending on
your program.
z Page Setup dialog box. This dialog box opens when you click
Page Setup or a similar command on the File menu of the
program you are working in. Settings changed here override
settings changed anywhere else.
z Print dialog box. This dialog box opens when you click Print,
Print Setup, or a similar command on the File menu of the
program you are working in. Settings changed in the Print dialog
box have a lower priority and do not override changes made in
the Page Setup dialog box.
z Printer Properties dialog box (printer driver). The printer driver
opens when you click Properties in the Print dialog box. Settings
changed in the Printer Properties dialog box do not override
settings available anywhere else.
z Default printer settings. The default printer settings determine
settings used in all print jobs, unless settings are changed in the
Page Setup, Print, or Printer Properties dialog boxes, as
described above. There are two ways to change the default
printer settings:
1. Click Start - Settings - Printers, then right-click the printer icon
and click Properties.
2. Click Start - Control Panel, then select the Printers folder, right-
click the printer icon and click Properties.
CAUTION To avoid affecting print jobs of other users, make printer setup changes
through the software application or the printer driver whenever
possible. Printer setup changes made through the control panel
become default settings for subsequent jobs. Changes made through
an application or the printer driver affect only that specific job.
