Printer-driver settings
The printer driver is a software component that controls, through user-specified options, common
printing features when sending print jobs to the MFP. Changes to printer-driver settings can be
temporary for print jobs that are run while the program is still open, or changes to the default settings
can be permanent; they are in effect now and in the future.
