You may send output to a file or a printer using the Windows® 'Print' dialog, see below. Alternatively you may output directly to a printer without using the Windows® driver: see Direct printing.
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. |
| 8. | Click OK.
If you have chosen to 'Print to file', the Log will show the number of pages sent, and the file name, when the file is complete. |
Tip
| • | Select one of the Unprintable area options from the 'View' menu to see the part of the page which some PCL printers cannot print. |
