When I select "Print..." (with elipses) from a program's menu options and I get a popup with three choices such as "print" (no elipses), "settings...", and "cancel", what is it I'm changing when I select "settings..."?   Are any changes I make to these settings unique to the application I'm using or are they global, affecting the way all applications will print?  This is where I would expect to find the option to print either EVEN, ODD, or ALL.  My understanding is that these settings are options for the printer "driver", affecting the way all applications print (assuming the changes are saved and not "applied")?  Is this not right?  If this dialog where I change printing options is not part of the application and it isn't "the driver", what is it?  


bit of a workaround, but if you've got a "Pages:" box expecting you to type in 1, 2-5, 7 or watever...copy and paste a load of even number from a text file into that dialog box...
