Abstract

A computer system includes an application with the ability to select printer settings from any of a variety of potential sources, and associate the printer settings with a document to be printed. The potential sources may include user-selected sets of printer settings that are particular to the document to be printed, are associated generally with the documents to be printed using the application, and globally associated with the computer system. The potential sources may also include a set of content-provider printer settings associated with the document and selected by a content-provider of the document.
