Changing the print queue properties

  1. Open the printer driver.

  2. Right-click the print queue icon.

  3. Select the appropriate Properties menu item.

  4. Change the settings.

  5. Click OK.

How you change the properties determines which print jobs are affected.

The settings shown in the Properties dialog box include all possible properties options for that specific printer type. However, your printer may not have all of the available options installed. If you select an option the printer does not support, the printer ignores the unsupported settings.

For example, the Printer Type may support an optional duplex unit. However, if a duplex unit is not connected to the printer, your print job prints on one side of the paper.
