The next two sections explain the different ways you can print a document:
m
Quick instructions for printing standard documents.

don’t require any special options, see this section. (The section describes
what a “standard document” is.)

Detailed instructions for printing other documents.
To print documents that
require any of the nonstandard options, see this section.
Quick instructions for printing standard documents
To print a standard document, follow the instructions in this section:
m standard paper size, US Letter (8.5" by 11" in the United States)
m plain paper
m portrait page orientation (so when you look at the printed page, it is longer
than it is wide)
m no special effects and normal print quality
Assuming you have already selected the printer in the Chooser as described
in Chapter 1, and that the printer is filled with standard paper, you need only
follow these steps:
1
While the document is in an active window, choose the Print command from the
File menu.
The Print dialog box opens on your screen.
2
Make sure the printer is turned on (the green power light glows).
3
Click the Print button.
After a few moments, the document starts to print. If background printing is
turned on, you can continue working while the document is printing. You can
also monitor and control the documents that are waiting to print. (See
“Printing While You Use Your Computer” and “Monitoring and Controlling
Background Printing,” later in this chapter.)
