Here's what I'm trying to do. I want to print several different text
documents, without opening them and without re-doing the printer driver
settings each time.

When I right click to print, the prints always come out in the default
mode: normal print quality in portrait mode. How can I make
right-clicking to print abide by a given driver configuration?


Thanks

Start => Settings => Printers Right click on the printer entry and choose
Printing Preferences to set the default driver properties.

You can also do it by printer selection if you instal
your printer several times with unique names and
set different default values for each (e.g. Draft, Best, etc.)

Thanks.

I was on the phone with Canon last night on unrelated issues, and
brought up that subject. She pointed me toward the Control Panel.

All is well. Thanks again.
