How do I set different print preferences for different documents?

I print on coffee mugs, and use two sizes of paper that have an image that gets pressed into the mug. The paper size is: 3.5x9, and 4x9.5. They are for smaller  (11oz) and larger (15oz) mugs. When I make my design on Corel and then go to print it onto paper, it always defaults to the smaller paper size, even when I'm working in the 4x9.5 inch workspace. I would like to know how to set specific preferences for different documents. Whenever I open the smaller size document to print on the smaller paper, my preferences are correct. Then if I open the design file for the larger paper, it automatically shows the preferences I have set for the 3.5x9in document.

Does anyone know how to make it so that when I open the 3.5x9in design, it chooses the correct paper size... and then when I open another document that is to be printed on the larger paper, the larger paper size is the default for all of my larger mug documents? When I print the design out for the larger 15oz mugs (larger paper), it defaults to 3.5x9 inch paper and I have to use the dropdown menu to switch it every single time.

Figuring this out would save me a HUGE amount of time and a lot of hassle, so any help is very much appreciated! :)

Thanks!

  • set your parameters and then hit save as and name it what you want. The next time you print you can hit the drop down and choose what style you want

    • Hi Myron,

      Thank you so much for your response. I do have it saved as a print style (named 15oz Mug), and I am able to go in and use the dropdown to select that saved print style. But is there a way to have the print style appear when I hit ctrl-P, without having to switch it in the drop down menu all the time?

      My designs are already created. So lets say every time I get an order for the "Best mom ever" mug or something like that, I just open up the document and hit ctrl-p and print 10 copies, or however many I need. Then I open up the next document, and print that number of copies I need. But for every single 15oz mug larger document, I'm hitting ctrl-P then using the dropdown before hitting OK to print. It becomes a problem when printing 75 different designs one after another. That's 75 times I need to use the drop down menu, ouch! Let me know if you have any ideas!

      Thanks so much!
