Creating Print Job Presets in macOS

NOTE: These instructions were made using MacOS Sequoia. Earlier or later OSes may be different.

If you find yourself frequently printing specific document types, or regularly using special paper/media, you can create a custom preset to avoid clicking through settings each time to send a job.

Steps to create a printing preset

From whichever app you are printing from, go to the File menu (toolbar at top of screen), and select Print in the drop down menu.
- NOTE: If printing from a web browser (e.g. Firefox, Chrome, Edge), select Print using the system dialogue under the More settings section of the Print menu.
In the Print Dialogue window, select the options that you want for the preset.
Click the drop-down menu in Presets, and select Save Current Settings as Preset
This will launch a pop-up window.
Enter a name for the Preset. Select if Available for a specific printer or All printers. For Type, select Print Job Preset.
Click OK to save the preset.
