Printer properties shortcut wanted
At present I have to click on the sequence --
Start/settings/printers/ca nonBJC7000 /printer/p roperties
to get to where I can alter paper type, color balance, and much else of the Canon's facilities. How do I create a shortcut directly to this area ? dan.

A desktop shortcut is only going to take you so far. You "progs" can go further because they're *PROGRAMS* and are firing the events for you. You can write a small piece of VB to do this, but if you want to run at the desktop level there's not much more you can do. About the only thing left is to put it in your startup area so the icon fires automatically. You can leave the printer minimized on your taskbar. Either that or leave your application program up & minimized with that page hot.

on the desktop icon just created, then on printer/properties
to get to where I wanted. My picture editing progs have printer props buttons which get me straight to the above "properties" sheet, so it can be done --- but how ?
