Color Depth - The color depth setting for the generated image. The value can be 1 bit, 8 bits, 8 bits grayscale and 24 bits. Certain file formats do not support all the available color depth options.
Open printed document using the default viewer - When enabled, the generated output document will be opened in the default program for that file type (extension).
Open output folder - If this option is enabled, the designated output directory will open in Windows Explorer after the print job is completed.
Save each page as separate file - If this option is enabled, the printer driver saves every printed page in a separate file. If disabled, every page is generated into a single file. Please note that certain file formats, for example, JPEG, do not support multiple pages. In these cases, this option is not available.
Save As Options - Advanced Settings
OCR Document - If this option is enabled, the Printer Driver extracts the text from the printed document/image with the specified configuration.
