Chapter 4: Windows Operations

This chapter describes features of the Windows Driver. The
driver allows you set default settings for all print jobs as
well as print settings for individual print jobs. Similar
features may be available in the Operator Panel or EWS. If
there is a conflict between settings in the Operator Panel,
Printing Preferences (default driver settings), or Embedded
Web Server and printer settings set via your application for
individual print jobs, the application settings supersede any
other setting.
