Export an Options Profile
If you get a new computer, you can quickly export the options and then import them there. Or, if you run a desktop computer and laptop computer, configure on one, export and then import on the other.
- To open Options from the Start screen, click Options on the left side. If you have a file open, go to the File menu, then click Options.
- Click Manage to expand the Options Profile section.
- In the list of profiles, click on an Options Profile or Local options.
- On the right side, click Export.
- Save the file to a shared location on your network. If you don't work in a network environment, save the file to an external media storage device (USB key) or cloud storage.
Import an Options Profile
Options Profiles are zip files. To import an Options Profile zip:
- To open Options from the Start screen, click Options on the left side. If you have a file open, go to the File menu, then click Options.
- Drag the zip file onto the Options dialog box. This creates a separate profile in the list.
- If you want to replace the contents of an existing profile, select the profile in the Manage profiles section of the Options dialog box, then click Import on the right side of the dialog box. This replaces the contents of the existing profile with those in the zip. (Handy if you create a profile to share just your print settings, for example.)
