Use the Add Printer Wizard to add new printer configurations. The printer must installed on the Eclipse server prior to setting configurations.
Note: Use the standard Windows functionality to add a printer. For assistance, see your local Information Technology representative.
To install a new printer configuration, gather the following information about the printer you want to add:
Branch at which you want the printer to be available. If you want to set up the same printer for multiple branches, install the printer twice. You can copy the printer setup and change the branch for which you installed it.
Printer locations you want the printer to print from, such as West Dock or Denver.
Valid paper types for the printer, such as plain, checks, or legal size.
You must have a printer set up with a PLAIN paper type for one tray that handles reports and other types of plain paper printing.
To add a new printer:
From the System > System Files menu, select Eclipse Forms Printer Maintenance to display the Eclipse Forms Printer Maintenance window on the Printer Settings tab.
Click New Printer to launch the New Printer Setup Wizard.
The system launches the wizard over the Eclipse Forms Printer Maintenance windows.
Review the new printer introductory information and click Next.
Assign a user-friendly printer name, select a printer from the network, and indicate which trays to use on the printer.
If you want to set printer trays differently from the imported settings or if the system cannot find settings to import and you need to set the tray information manually, select Manual Override.
If you want to set the tray information back to the default settings from the server, click Refresh Printer Settings. The system prompts you to confirm the update.
Click Next to define the printer locations for this printer.
Click Next to define the forms to use on this printer.
Click Next to print test pages and complete the configuration.
Click Print Test Page to test your setup configuration.
The system prints a test page for each tray set up.
