These read-only fields describe the selected printer.

Print to file

 

Print to file

Select to send output to a file instead of a printer.

 

Print output to

Type the path and filename for the output file.

 

If file exists

Select what to do when the output file already exists in the target location.

 

Bypass Windows print driver

Select to send raw data (including printer control escape codes) directly to your printer. Output is sent to the printer immediately, instead of waiting for a whole page of information, and the Windows printing interface is bypassed.

If you're bypassing Windows printing to a PostScript printer, the results may not be what you expect. PostScript printers are controlled by PostScript commands, which are typically sent to the printer from a PostScript printer driver.

Network

Click to connect to a shared network printer.
