      OptionDescription

      Printer

      Name of the active printer and printer connection. You can select another printer from the drop-down list of configured print devices. If the desired printer is not visible in the drop-down list and you are on a network, click the Network button.

      Properties

      Printer settings for the selected printer. The available options vary depending on the printer driver. Click the Properties button to define printer-specific properties.

      Paper

      Size of the paper (for example, Letter 8 1/2 x 11 in) and the paper source (for example, Upper Tray). Choose Auto Select to use the default.

      Orientation

      Select either Portrait or Landscape. When you change the page orientation of a page, Production Reporting transfers the top and bottom margin measurements to the left and right margin measurements, and vice versa.

      Network

      Connects your computer to a network printer. The Network button appears only if your computer is connected to a network. To get Help on network printers, click the Network button, and then click Help.
