You can change one printer's device settings for one printer, and then apply these settings to multiple printers. When printing from a computer application, various printing settings can be specified from the printer driver; however, using the Device Settings tool in the Printer Setting Tool, more advanced settings can be specified. When you open the Device Settings window, the printer's current settings are retrieved and displayed. If the current settings cannot be retrieved, the previous settings are displayed. If the current settings cannot be retrieved and previous settings were not specified, the machine's factory settings appear.
