Welcome back to the HP Community --

 

Installing the full driver printer software should provide access to the full range of Printing Preferences, including the Preferences templates and shortcuts tab.

 

If not done, consider installing / reinstalling the full driver on the supported Windows system where Printing Preferences are truncated.

Reinstall the full driver printer software
