Printer Settings
You can use the Aficio BP20 Series PCL6 printer properties
window, which allows you to access all of the printer options you
need when using your machine. When the printer properties are
displayed, you can review and change whatever settings are
needed for your print job.
The printer’s properties window may differ, depending on your
operating system. This User’s Guide shows the Printing
Preferences window for Windows XP.
Your printer’s Printing Preferences window consists of 5 tabs:
Layout, Paper, Graphics, Extras, and About.
If you access printer properties through the Printers folder, you
can view additional Windows-based tabs (refer to your Windows
User’s Guide) and the Printer tab (see page 4.13).
N OTES :
• Most Windows applications will override the settings you specify
in the printer driver. Change all of the print settings available in
the software application first, and change any remaining settings
using the printer driver.
• The settings you change remain in effect only while you are
using the current program. To make your changes permanent,
make them in the Printers folder. Follow this procedure:
1 Click the Windows Start menu.
2 . For Windows 95/98/Me/NT 4.0/2000, select Settings and
