Application Based Printing
An administrator can associate a profile with an application so that all printing
from the application uses the same profile settings. This makes profiles easier
to use and ensures consistent printing from an application. For example, a
duplex printing profile can be applied to all spreadsheet printing to save paper,
or reports in Microsoft Word can be set to print with consistent stapling and print
quality.
Associations between profiles and applications can be created at any time in the
Profiles
dialog box. To use the associations in printing, the feature must be
turned on in the
Administrator Settings
dialog box, accessed from
Device
Settings
.
A maximum of 25 associations can be created in the
Application Based
Printing
dialog box, accessed from the
Profiles
dialog box.
In a client/server environment, clients can view details about server
associations but cannot change settings or select another profile.
Adding an Association
Once profiles have been created or imported, you can create an association
between a profile and an application. Then the application always prints using
the associated profile settings.
