Save your Mac print settings to use later

You can save your print settings as a preset so you can quickly use the same settings again. To create a preset, you first adjust all of the print settings you want.

Save your settings as a preset

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

  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. Enter a name for the preset, then choose whether to use the preset for only the currently selected printer or all printers.

Print with your preset

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

  2. Click the Presets pop-up menu, then choose your preset. If you don’t see the Presets pop-up menu, click Show Details.

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