I was not aware of that choice. In my case the print job starts immediately without an opportunity to interact with the printer options.
I would say that is the way it works.
Opening the document and selecting ⌘P seems to be the only way that allows printer options.

OS Daily usually has good tips.

According to the comments in that article: The only caveat is that it will use the default settings, which for an image usually means filling the page. That can be overkill if you’re printing some kind of drop-down menu or other small item — you don’t need a poster of something that’s only 100px to begin with!
I agree that OS Daily is usually reliable, but in this case there appear to be too many printer/system variables.
