Printer Settings in Windows ________
Your printer’s operator panel menus provide access to many options.
The Windows printer driver also contains  settings for many of these items. Where 
items in the printer driver are the same  as those in the operator panel menus, and 
you print documents from Windows, the setti ngs in the Windows printer driver will 
override those settings in the operator panel menus.
Printing preferences in Windows applications
When you choose to print your document  from a Windows application program a Print 
dialog box appears. This dialog usually specifies the name of the printer on which you 
will print your document. Next to the printer name is a Properties button.
When you click Properties  a new window opens which contains a short list of the 
printer settings available in the driver, which you can choose for this document. The 
settings available from within your application are only those which you may want to 
change for specific applications or docume nts. Settings you change here will usually 
only last for as long as the partic ular application program is running.

1.Paper size should be the same as the page size of your document (unless you 
wish to scale the printout to fit another size), and should also be the same as the 
size of paper you will feed into the printer.
2. You can choose the source of the paper to feed, which may be Tray 1 (the 
standard paper tray), Manual (MB460 MF P), Multi Purpose Tray (MB470 MFP, 
MB480 MFP), or Tray 2 (if you have the op tional second paper tray installed). You 
can also click on the appropriate part  of the screen graphic to select your 
preferred tray.
3. A variety of document finishing options can be selected, such as normal one page 
per sheet, or N-up (where N can be 2 or 4) for printing scaled down pages at 
more than one page per sheet.
4. Under 2-sided Printing, you can choose from auto or manual. Under manual 2-
sided Printing you can choose to print on one side of a sheet only or to use 2-
sided printing (duplex printing). Your printer allows you to carry out manual 
duplex printing, meaning you must pass the paper through the printer twice. For 
more information, see “2-sided (duplex)  printing” on page 111. The Duplex Help 
button also offers guidelines on how  to carry out manual duplex printing.
5. If you have changed some printing prefer ences before and saved them as a set, 
you can recall them to avoid having to set them individually each time you need 
them.
6. A single on-screen button restores the default settings.

1.The output resolution of the printed page can be set as follows.
• The ProQ1200 setting for Xxxxxn prints at 600 X 2400dpi. This setting  requires the most printer memory and takes the longest to print. Your 
printed pages can be scaled to fit larger  or smaller stationery. It is the best 
option for printing photographs.
• The High Quality setting prints at  600 X 1200dpi for Xxxxxn and 1200 x 
1200dpi for Xxxxxdn and Xxxxxdtn is  the best option for printing vector 
objects such as graphics and text. 
• The Normal setting prints at 600 x 600dpi and is suitable for most printing  jobs.
• The Draft setting prints at 300 x 300dpi and is suitable for printing draft  documents that contain mainly text. You can select Toner Saving to save 
toner for some print jobs.
2. Page orientation can be set to either portrait (tall) or landscape (wide). Both 
views can be rotated by 180 degrees.

If you would like to print on special stationery, such as forms and letterhead, but 
do not want to use pre-printed stationery, you can create your own using Overlays. 
For more information on Overlays and Macros refer to “Overlays and Macros 
(Windows only)” on page 129. The Overlays  button also offers guidelines on how 
to carry out manual duplex printing.
4. In Raster (bitmap) mode, processing of the page image is done in the computer 
leaving little processing for the printer to  do, although the file size may be large. 
In Vector mode, file sizes may be smaller and so transmission over a network, for 
example, may be faster. These effects ar e more pronounced for graphics printing 
than for text printing.
5. You can select up to 999 copies to print consecutively, although you will need to 
top up the paper tray during such a long print run.
6. Your printed pages can be scaled to fit larger or smaller stationery, within a range 
of 25% to 400% of the original size.
7. A single on-screen button restores the default settings.
