You can setup your printer's draft mode settings by going to Start>Control Panel>Printers and Faxes>look for the name of your printer and right click, choose printer preferences. You can change the settings from there.In default it is set as Normal, you can change it to Draft mode.

I have done it. I was wondering that it was concern with printer's own setting. but it is depends on OS.
Thanks for your feedback.

I have used my printer in draft mode for a week. it saves ink effectively. but it is only for testing. You can only use while you print less importance paper.
Thanks.
