  • Copies
  • Magnification
  • Rotate/Mirror

  1. Click the [Open] icon on the toolbar, or select File > Open from the menu. This displays the “Open” dialog (Figure 1).
  2. On the middle of the dialog, select the printer you want to use from the drop-down menu. If you have developed Quick Sets, select your Quick SetCollapsed. If you have not, leave this setting as Default. Quick Set options that match those in the Open dialog will be prepopulated. Any changes you make to those settings in the open dialog will supersede the Quick Set settings.
  3. If you want to send your image to Job Editor, select the [Open in Job Editor] option.
