Forwarded An Option Required in Printing Dialog

[munirshahzad]

i used IrfanView for a long time and also print so much.
in Print Dialog there should be Page Source displayed. it is very useful for me at least and other members too.



Page Source Dialog in Printer Setup.



Thanks a lot and hope it will be considered.

I rarely print anything these days; usually I use the Print to PDF option, but I agree that some users would find it useful to have the paper source displayed on the print dialog if they do a lot of printing, or use different paper types.

Thanks Bhikkhu Pesala
I used lot of printing used different papers and when print both sides of page then use side trays. this option useful to know which tray is selected.

Don't the printer properties offer what you look for?

They do, but one has to open another dialog, and select: Printer Setup, Printer Properties, Paper Quality. That would be three extra steps in my case, which is problematic if one prints multiple times a day.

My printer (HP Color Laser Jet) has an option to save the mostly used setting. Does Canon not offer such a setting?

If you don't close IV, the print settings are remembered. Simply drag the next photo or open with dialog. Or, leave one instance open and open other photos as always.

The problem is that the OP frequently needs to switch the paper source. If the same settings were always used there is no need to display it on the print dialog. At least, if the currently selected paper tray was shown, there would be no need to jump through hoops just to check which tray is selected; only if it needs to be changed.

Thats right Bhikkhu Pesala, i fequently changing the paper source. and often print on the wrong try then i Cancel the print and re-print on correct try. so i think paper source should be there for user convenient.

Send the suggestion to Irfan Skiljan and see what he says. (Help, About IrfanView for his email).
