Printing from Windows applications

After you have connected the printer to your computer and installed and set

up the printer software, you’re ready to start printing. This section explains the

basic steps required to print a document, though the details can vary from one

program to another. To find out more about printing from your programs,

read the documentation that came with them. If you have Windows NT, print

using the TCP/IP protocol or AppleTalk protocol. See your Windows NT

manual for information on configuring TCP/IP.

To print a document from a Windows program, the program must be open

and the document window must be active.

1Choose Print from the File menu.

In most cases, a Print dialog box appears in which you can select options,

including the number of copies and the pages to print. Depending on your

program, the Print dialog box may offer other options.

2 In the dialog box, select the options you want and click Print.
