  2. Select Print.

    Press Ctrl + P.

  3. Examine the print preview on the right side of the screen, making sure that the preview looks the way you want it.
  4. Select the correct printer by clicking the Printer list arrow and selecting it from the list.
  5. Adjust the printer settings using the options below the printer, described in the table below.
  6. Choose the number of copies in the Copies text field.
