According to the data sheet, the printer is supposed to support toner save, so you should be able to find it under printer Properties. Go to Start &gt;&nbsp;Devices &amp;&nbsp;Printers. Right-click the printer and select Printer Properties. Click the Advanced tab and then the Printing Defaults button. Try clicking all the tabs and buttons you see in there.

Looks like Dell did not offer this option on the 64-bit driver. Thank you for the insight.

We have a brand new Dell 1250c Color Laser hooked up to a Windows 7 64-bit laptop and we're trying to figure out how to set the printer to use toner save mode (draft mode). We've looked in the printer preferences and can't find anything. Tried installing from the software included with the printer as well as just letting Windows find the drivers. I have not been able to find anything on Dell's site either except steps on how to turn it off so we tried to reverse the process but the option is not there to select.<br />
<br />
Any help would be greatly appreciated.<br />

How to set Dell 1250c Color Laser to Toner Save Mode

A peripheral device is defined as a computer device, such as a keyboard or printer, that is not part of the essential computer (i.e., the memory and microprocessor). These auxiliary devices are intended to be connected to the computer and used in conjunction with it. Examples of external peripherals include mouse, keyboard, printer, monitor, external Zip drive or scanner, while internal peripherals include CD-ROM drive, CD-R drive or internal modem. Today's new devices, such as tablets, smartphones and wearable computing devices are considered peripherals as they can be connected and used on a computer system. The difference, however, is that these devices can run independently of the computer system.

Peripherals

A printer is a peripheral which makes a persistent human readable representation of graphics or text on paper or similar physical media. Traditional printers are being used more for special purposes, like printing photographs or artwork, and are no longer a must-have peripheral; 3D printing has become an area of intense interest, allowing the creation of physical objects. An image scanner is a device that optically scans images, printed text, handwriting, or an object, and converts it to a digital image. Hand-held scanners, where the device is moved by hand, have evolved from text scanning "wands" to 3D scanners used for industrial design, reverse engineering, test and measurement, orthotics, gaming and other applications.
