MacPrint: Set printing

If you click on Set printing in the Calamus Print dialog, the printing dialog of the current Mac OS driver will open. Here you can make all the desired adjustments and then click on Print to return to the Calamus dialog (the actual printout will only be started of course from the Calamus dialog).

As with other Mac applications, the saving of settings of the MacPrint dialog is dependent on the specific printer driver in each case:

Settings are retained

This is the most common case. The set parameters are retained for the next call of the dialog and can be saved at any time with the MacPrint Setup.

Settings are not retained

Some drivers do not save certain information at all: The settings have to be made anew each time.

LaserWriter

The settings of the Print dialog of the LaserWriter driver are handled somewhat differently:

All settings are only valid up to the next call of the LaserWriter Print dialog. When you call it next, the previous values will appear again.

Only if you select Save before quitting the LaserWriter dialog will the new values also appear when it is next called up. But even in that case the settings will be saved permanently only with the MacPrint Setup.

This difference can be very useful if you occasionally wish to print out of turn with different settings; for instance, a few pages with manual feed. At the next call of the LaserWriter dialog the driver will return to automatic feed from the tray once more.
