Save Configuration |
Scroll |
Each configuration is saved in a separate file. The following data are saved:
•name and settings of the current printer,
•paper size and feeding method,
•page orientation.
|
For your convenience, it is recommended to assign meaningful names to the configuration files: the name should indicate the name of the current printing device as well as the print settings (paper size and page orientation). You can also use the names of the configurations in the filenames: e. g. indicate the type of the documents in the name of the configuration file. |
