How to create and use printer presets on macOS

1. On your Mac, open a document, then choose File > Print.

2. Choose any print settings you want to save as a preset.

3. Click the Presets pop-up menu, then choose Save Current Settings as Preset.

   

4. To save a print job or custom preset, do the following:

   • Preset Name: Type a preset name.

   • Available for: To create a preset for a specific printer, click the printer name or click “All printers” to make this preset available for all printers.

   • Type: Click Print Job Preset to save it as a general print job preset or click Custom Preset to save the settings as a custom preset to be used with a print job preset.

To view a list of presets or delete them, choose Edit Preset List from the Preset pop-up menu. You can also choose to automatically revert the chosen presets to the default print settings after printing.

1. With a document open on your Mac, choose File > Print.

2. Click the Presets pop-up menu, then choose the Standard or Print Job presets from the menu.

   You see all presets available for that printer. If you don’t see a preset, it’s possible that you created that preset for only a specific printer.

3. To optionally use custom presets, click the Presets pop-up menu, choose Presets, then choose the custom presets you want.

   Tip: You can preselect a combination of custom presets to be used together. Choose Advanced Selection from the Preset menu and then click the presets you want used in combination.

4. With your preset selected, click Print.
