Use the printer system programs to set up and manage the printers connected to the system. After assigning printers to your system, you need to define printer locations and identity the printers in each location. You can determine the printers available to each user's terminal by assigning printer locations to users.
Use the printer system programs to set up the following:
Printer Characteristics – Printer characteristics are pre-defined. Your installer and system administrator can use the Printer Characteristics screen to make necessary additions or adjustments for your system.
Printer Assignments – Assign printers to the system and identify the loadable forms for each printer. Define printer locations and then assign printers to them. Assign printer locations to users.
Printer Forms – Before printing from the system, you must assign forms to the documents your company prints and to printer trays.
After your printers are set up, you can use the system spooler to manage print jobs going to all the printers in the system.
The Adding Printers Workflow shows the tasks required for adding a new printer to the system.
