I have a HP printer, using Web services. The printer has a unique email address, which can be used to print from everywhere.
Everything works fine: when I send an email to the printer, it starts printing.
By the way, I don't know how to set the default printing settings, like:
- double-sided printing
- quality (normal or draft)
- color or black/white
Those settings are easy to set from my Windows PC, but those are applied only when printing from my PC.
How to set default printer settings for jobs sent via Web?
Thank you.

Hello @sandytechy20,
thank you for your answer.
I had signed up my account on the HPSmart website, and added my printer.
When I click "My printers", I can see my printer (HP DeskJet 2600 All-in-One Printer Series), then the printer unique email address, then a box named "ePrint Access", with three options: open to everyone, blocked, allowed (open to everyone is selected).
No other boxes are present in this page.
Where I should go?
Thank you.
