Easily Recalling Frequently Used Print Settings

Registering frequently used print settings

You can register the current print settings as a favorite and recall it when executing printing.

When you register a frequently used combination of print settings as a favorite, you can easily apply all of those settings just by selecting the combination from the Favorite Setting list, even if the combination is complicated as it contains settings on multiple tabs.

This section describes how to register favorites.

  1. In the [Printing Preferences] window, set the print conditions you want to register as a favorite.
  2. Click [Add...].
    • To edit a registered favorite, select from [Favorite Setting] the name of the favorite you want to edit, and click [Edit].
  3. Enter the name of the favorite to be registered.
    • As necessary, specify the icon, comment, and items to be recalled for the favorite.

    • Clicking [to the LEFT] places the selected function in the area to the left of [My Tab] and clicking [to the RIGHT] places it in the area to the right of [My Tab].
    • An icon appears to the left of each function that is registered in [My Tab].
  3. As necessary, move or delete the registered functions.
