When I go to look at a printer's properties in Windows XP, I see a checkbox for "Enable Advanced Printing Features." What does this option do?

(Specifically, I'm using a Zebra S4M label printer, but I believe this option is available for printers throuh the "printer properties" dialog in Windows).

I googled 10 minutes about this and found the following:

Depends on what the particular printer driver supports. Help on it says it enables 'metafile spooling' and such facilities as Page Order; Booklet Printing and Pages per sheet.

Thats also what i thought. It really depends on which specific driver or printer you are using.

I had googled it as well but didn't really find anything that helped explain it very well. Thanks for the answer, though. – Ben McCormack Apr 20 '10 at 19:16
no problem. It´s kind of an interesting question because it´s something I never thought about. The checkbox was just always there ^^ – Diskilla Apr 20 '10 at 19:36
