You may send output to a file or to a printer. To set up the default printer to be used, see Printer Setup. To specify the default configuration for printers, see Setting the output printer's defaults.

1.Choose Print... from the 'File' menu.
2.Select the page number range that defines which pages are to be printed (see also Selecting page ranges).
3.Enter the number of Copies of each selected page to be printed.
4.Tick Collate to group the pages into sets (if the printer allows).
5.If you choose to Print to file instead of a printer, enter a File name. (A default is displayed and also a Browse... button to set up a path in the usual way).
6.Select a Printer from the drop-down list. This should be the printer that will be used unless you have ticked 'Print to file'; in which case, select a type of printer that would set up appropriate format conditions for the output file.
7.Tick Scale to fit and/or Print as an image if required: see Page imaging and scaling.
8.Click OK.

Tip:

Select one of the Show unprintable area options from the 'View' menu to see the part of the page which some PCL printers cannot print.
