Window Reference

Print Setup Window

Use the Print Setup window to select a print driver and options associated with it. For most operating systems, host printing is used by default and is recommended. This means that printing makes use of device drivers which you install through your operating system, and works the same way as it does for other applications written for this operating system. If your operating system does not support this, or you prefer to use a particular SAS/GRAPH device driver, you can choose the SAS/GRAPH option.

This window comes up automatically the first time you print, if you have not already specified the requested information. Once you have done so, your choices are saved and the window does not come up again unless you choose Print Setup from the File pull-down menu.

Controls and Fields

Print Setup Options: lets you select host print drivers or SAS/GRAPH print drivers.
Color/Gray-scale/Monochrome radio box: specifies the SAS generic print driver to use in conjunction with a host print driver. In most cases you can accept the default setting of color.
Setup: brings up your operating system's print setup window, if you are using host drivers, or the Graphics Device Name window if you are using SAS/GRAPH drivers. The Graphics Device Name window lets you specify a device type (printer, plotter, camera, or export) and choose a device driver from a device catalog.
OK: closes the Print Setup window and applies the specified options.
Cancel: closes the Print Setup window without making any changes.
