Install the printer driver.

 

Go to Control Panel > Devices and Printers > right click on a Printer Driver> Printing Preferences.

 

One should configure the printer driver for the desired setting such as output directory, file format PDF or TIFF, Start Application, etc…

 

Once the printer driver is configured, select the “Profile Manager” Tab.

 

On the Profile Manager tab, click on “Save current settings to configuration INI file”.
