dialog box from that application. The following explains how to make settings
for the WordPad application provided with Windows NT 4.0.

A

On the [File] menu, click [Print].
The [Print] dialog box appears.

B

Select the printer you want to use in the [Name] list, and then click [Properties].
The printer properties dialog box appears.

C

Make the necessary settings, and then click [OK].

D

Click [OK] to start printing.

Note

❒ The procedure to open the printer properties dialog box may vary depend-

ing on the application. For details, see the manuals provided with the ap-
plication you use.

❒ With some applications, the printer driver settings are not used, and the

application's own default settings are applied.

❒ Any settings you make in the following procedure are valid for the current

application only.

❒ General users can change the properties displayed in the [Print] dialog box

of an application. Settings made here are used as defaults when printing
from this application.
