Reusing Job Settings

The print settings of a given job (job A) can be used with a different job (job B) that already exists in the job list. In this way, the same print settings can be applied to different print data.

Most print settings can be reused, but there are limitations on the following items.

Items that cannot be used (Setting value returns to the default value.)
