# BASIC PRINTING

## Overview

This section explains how to print a document from "WordPad", which is a standard accessory application in Windows.

- The menu used to execute printing may vary depending on the application such as [Print].
- The button that is used to open the printer driver properties window (usually [Property] or [Print Preferences]) may vary depending on the application.
- The machine name that normally appears in the [Printer] menu is [MX-xxxx]. ("xxxx" is a sequence of characters that varies depending on the machine model.)

## Operation

   In Windows XP/Server 2003/Vista, select [Print] from the [File] menu.
