You gain access to the drivers through onscreen windows, or driver tabs, that offer dialog boxes with printer settings. The driver tabs are available in the software application from which you send your print jobs to the printer and from your computer's control panel. The graphical user interface (GUI) of the driver tabs differs from driver to driver.
