You can use multi-part printing to print forms to multiple printers in different locations. Use this procedure to set up multi-part printing for forms.

 

 

 

To set up multi-part form printing for all modules

  1. Access the form printing window. In the Form Code field, enter the form code to set up for multi-part printing.

  2. Select the Multi-Part Form Enabled check box and click Multi Part.

  3. In the Multi-Part Form Maintenance window, in the Copies field, type the number of copies to print to the printer. For more information, see Multi-Part Form Maintenance - Fields.

  4. Select the Collated check box to collate multiple copies of the form during printing.

  5. In the Shadow Text field, type a description for the form printed to the selected printer. For example, type “Cust Copy” if this is the customer copy of the form.

  6. Select the Print Shadow check box to print the shadow text.

  7. In the Printer field, select the printer.

  8. Click the Print Setup button.

  9. In the Printer Setup window, change the printer and printing options such as paper orientation and paper size, as necessary. For more information, see Printer Setup - Fields.

Note Printing options default to the default setting of the printer, not the document; verify the appropriate printing options for the form to print. Changes to the paper orientation, size, source, and duplex (printing on both sides) options are saved with the form code.

  1. Repeat steps 3 through 9 for each additional printer.

  2. Click OK.

Multi-part printing is set up for the selected form code.

Note If a shared printer is physically connected to one of the workstations, create a separate form code to use for that workstation, because the printer driver name used is different between the local and remote workstations.
