Print Preview and Printer settings changed

In my old version of CS2 there was a print preview option which allowed me to scale photo and then access my printer settings direct to select printer preview and all the other settings my preinter allows such as color control.

This has disappeared in Photoshop 2017 though.

Why can't I select to print  preview and make all the same settings as I did in older versions?  Is it a hidden option somewhere?  Just seems a step backward to me.

in 2017 all I get is the dialog below...

But in CS 2 I used to get this where print then let me select more options from my printer...

Thanks

Hi

When you click on Printer settings in that dialogue it takes you to the printer driver. You may need to take a look at the driver in Windows Settings

For example in mine I get the same Epson dialogue below from Photoshop - Print - Print Settings   and from  Windows - Settings - Devices - Printers and Scanners - Epson Stylus Pro 3800 - Manage - Printing Preferences

Are you using Windows or Mac?

I use Windows 10 and CC2017.0.1 Clicking on File - Print    gives me this (the scroll bar on the right reveals further options for position , printing marks etc)

Thanks Dave.  Windows 10.  I get that same screen but then in CS2 when I clicked setup for printer it used to take me to my Epson controls so can choose paper type amongst a bunch of other things.  I just get that in this version though.

Thanks
