Previewing a print job

You can confirm the following information before printing:

Template type
Page layout
Total number of pages

Selecting a printer

The Print Jobs window shows the last used printer in the client machine for the logged-in user, as a preselected printer. If no last-used printer information is available, then the application shows the Windows default printer as a preselected printer.

Try one of the following:

Select the preselected printer.
Click Change Printer to select another printer.

Note: If the Print Control Service is not installed and no last-used-printer information is available, then the server default printer (if any) is automatically selected.

Selecting a tray

Tray information is automatically selected based on the configuration and availability.

Server-side printing

The tray option is visible only if the corresponding paper is associated with a tray.
Note: The tray is shown as a label (non-editable).
If the tray is not configured, then the Paper Tray setting does not appear.

Client-side printing

The tray option is preselected if the corresponding paper is associated with a tray and the tray is available for the selected printer.
If the tray is not configured, then the first tray in the local print queue list appears as preselected.

Note: You can change the tray option manually.

Setting a start at print position

If printing multi-up paper, you can set a position on the paper to start printing, instead of the default first place.
You can preview the new print start position before proceeding to print.

Other print settings

You can select the following settings

Select the Print as 1UP check box to print multiple pages onto a single paper.
Select the check box to include any background image from the template.

Printing selected jobs

This setting must be configured and managed only through Platform Administrator.

Note: You can select an individual template instead of all templates under the selected paper.

Setting the Bump Page values

You can set the Bump Page values to offset the sign or label based on the X and Y parameters. You can enable this setting only through Platform Administrator.

From the Batches page, select one or more batches, and then click Print.
From the Print Job page, change the print settings, if necessary.
Click More Settings, and then type the values in the X-offset and Y-offset fields.

Notes:

We recommend turning off Troubleshooter when you set the Bump Page values.
For the Y parameter, the page is shifted upward if the Print API setting is set to WINDOWS. The page is shifted downward if Print API setting is set to POSTSCRIPT.
To use the Bump Page feature, use Print Control Service version 11.1 or later.

Troubleshooting

Note: This option is available only to Troubleshooter type users.

Users can configure the following settings:

Print API, print method, printer model, and print graphics method
Print target where the server printer is selected
Local graphics, log level, and cache location for the local printer

Notes:

The saved changes are applied in subsequent print jobs.
To reset the settings, click Reset to Default.
