you first switch off the layers which contain the unwanted elements, or
better switch all off and only the ones on that you want.
In target you click the layers icon (clored layers) and then you can click
on the right bottom a button that will send the layer options to your
working window as toolbox. (you can also show/hide layers via this screen
but it is nicer to see the results instantly).
To toggle visibility just click the colored box for the layer, and move
your mouse out of the toolbox to activate the changes.
For a normal print i would select for example copper bottom or top, and
board outline (usually 23). You do not need to select the holes if you
don't want to, as there is a option in the print dialog to show center
holes for manual drilling.
select "hard black and white" or whatever it is translated into to make
sure the colors print full black for a film.
If you do this often, you will create layer sets, so you can simply click
a button and get the film for copper bottom or top or cmponent legend etc..
