Changing Print Settings
The basic print settings you will need are usually selected within your software program.
These settings include the number of copies, paper size, and paper orientation.
Selecting Custom HP Print Settings
HP’s print settings dialog box allows you to select settings that are not provided by the software
program. These settings include:
■
Paper Type – HP provides special settings for HP Premium sheets such as Glossy Paper, Premium
Inkjet Paper, and Transparencies.
■
Print Quality – Use to select the level of print quality.
■
Grayscale Printing – Use this setting when you want to print color documents in shades of gray for
better photocopying results.
■
ColorSmart II – Use the manual ColorSmart II setting when you want to manually adjust color
intensity and halftoning methods instead of letting HP’s ColorSmart II technology do it automatically.
■
Flip Horizontal – Use to reverse or flip the printed image. (Not available with Windows NT.)
■
Ordered Printing – Use to reverse the print order of your document. (Not available with Windows NT.)
■
