Note Priority for print settings Changes made to print settings are prioritized (or take precedence) depending on where the changes are made: The names of commands and dialog boxes might vary depending on your software application. ● Page Setup dialog box. This dialog box opens when you click Page Setup or a similar command on the File menu of the program you are working in. Settings changed here override settings changed anywhere else. ● Print dialog box. This dialog box opens when you click Print, Print Setup, or a similar command on the File menu of the program you are working in. Settings changed in the Print dialog box have a lower priority and do not override changes made in the Page Setup dialog box. ● Printer Properties dialog box (printer driver). The printer driver opens when you click Properties in the Print dialog box. Settings changed in the Printer Properties dialog box do not override settings available anywhere else in the printing software. ● Default printer driver settings. The default printer driver settings determine settings used in all print jobs, unless settings are changed in the Page Setup, Print, or Printer Properties dialog boxes, as described above. ● Printer control panel settings. Settings changed here have a lower priority than changes made anywhere else.
