Clicking on the Security link, it gave me roughly the same options I saw through the print dialog interface. On the right drop-down, I chose the Set Default Options from the menu. To do that, I used Safari and went to On the page that comes up, I clicked on the Printers tab and selected the link to my printer. To fix that problem, I had to access the Mac’s CUPS web interface.
#HOW TO CHANGE DEFAULT PRINTER SETTINGS ON MAC CODE#
Selecting the preset remembered that I only wanted to print one sided and it remembered the PIN code but it didn’t remember the checkbox to use the PIN code. In my instance, the preset didn’t quite do the trick for me. If you want a setting to be the new default hold down the Option key when you hit print to set this new preset as the default preset for future print jobs. Unfortunately, you will have to choose it every time over the Standard settings. Now that you have a preset configured with the settings you want, you can choose it from near the top of the print dialog box. Now to save these two settings that I have configured, I went to the Presets drop-down and chose Save As… (You can’t save over the Standard settings.).Īfter clicking Save As, a Save Preset As dialog will popup asking you to give the preset a name and whether it should be available on all printers or only this printer. I checked the box for Account Track and entered the department’s PIN code. The next setting for this Konica Minolta is found under Security. There, we can change Print Type from 2-Sided to 1-Sided. In this case, another drop-down will be listed below and we’ll select Layout.
To change the 2-sided printing, you’ll find the settings under Printer Features, which will likely be different for each driver. The big settings that I have been asked about are printing to only one side instead of both sides by default and including a PIN code with a print job. Clicking that gives a lot of options to choose from where multiple settings can be configured. You can see some common printer settings now but a lot more customization is in the bottom drop-down, in this case labeled Safari.
