Before proceeding, it's important to review and adjust all print settings to avoid any errors or undesired outcomes. Take the time to ensure that everything is set up correctly before proceeding to print.
Finally, initiate the printing process by clicking the print button. The document will be sent to the selected printer, and you can retrieve the printed copy from the printer tray once the printing is complete.
