Systems and methods for specifying application specific printing requirements for an arbitrary printing device without the aid of a fully compatible printer driver or printer definition that specifies the implementation of the printing requirement for a specific printer. Application specific printing requirements are specified for an arbitrary printing device. A printing device is able to have multiple sets of default device settings, such as factory default settings, standard default settings, and one or more sets of application specific default settings. A user may easily configure the printer device for a specific application without having a fully compatible printer driver or without specific knowledge of the implementation of the option/settings, and without interfering with printing from other print environments that require a conventional mechanism (e.g., printer driver, standard default settings, etc.), by utilization of the front-panel of the printer device, a web page, device management protocol or a pseudo print job.
