Drag file to print

This is a quick way to print a file without opening it yourself. What you need is a shortcut to the printer icon on your desktop. In order to print a file, just drag the file to the printer icon, and get your print.

To create a shortcut to the printer icon on your desktop,

1. Click on Start button > Printer and Faxes


2. Drag the default printer icon to the desktop

note: If you create a none default printer on the desktop, Windows will ask you to make it as default, the first time you drag a file onto it. You have to click on Yes, in order to use this feature.
