Registering Printer Output Buttons
Registering a printer output button to the output bar on the Desktop Browser screen enables you to easily print documents from Desktop.
When Desktop Browser is started up for the first time, if a Canon printer driver in which the automatic registration function is applicable is installed on your computer, it automatically registers the corresponding Canon printer as a printer output button.
When there is no printer output button for the printer that you want to use, you need to take the following steps to register a printer output button.
Note that because the flow of printing operation will differ depending on the settings of printer output button, you need to configure the settings according to the purposes and usages.

NOTE

|
Preinstall the printer driver for the printer that will be used with a printer output button.
The settings and display settings of printer output buttons can be changed as necessary.
You can register multiple printer output buttons.
If you change the name of the printer registered in a printer output button on the printer properties screen of Windows, you will become unable to print using the printer output button. If you change the printer name, select the printer again in the settings of the printer output button.
