Print for Standard Recipients or as a Default Delivery Method

To print a copy of a document for a standard recipient or as a default delivery method for a routing list, Output Manager must have specific information about the print output.

  1. To configure print for a standard recipient, select or create a standard recipient, click the Add drop down menu on the Delivery tab and select Print.
  2. The Print dialog screen opens.
General
Printer
  1. Select the Printer Name from the list of all printers available to the computer where the Output Manager service is installed.

    If the list of printers isn't being displayed, check to make sure that the Output Manager service is configured properly:

    Make sure the Output Manager service has been turned on at least once in order to gather a list of available printers. If a new printer was just added, the service should be restarted.

    Make sure that the log on account specified for the Output Manager service has access to the printers.

    If the appropriate printer does not appear in the list, make sure the computer where the Output Manager service is installed has access to that printer.

  2. Enter a Description for the delivery method. This description can be used to uniquely identify delivery methods that are similar but contain different cover sheet, format or schedule information.
  3. Verify the following to get the appropriate output:

    Default Printer Options

    1. Use the up/down arrows to select the Number of copies you want to have printed.
    2. Specify the Duplex option you require for the output.
      • Simplex – Single sided printing. This is the default option.
      • Vertical – (also known as long-edge, or portrait) Double sided printing with pages flipped, or turned on their long edge.
      • Horizontal – (also known as short-edge, or landscape) Double sided printing with pages flipped, or turned on their short edge.

    Paper

    1. Select the Size of the paper you want to use from the drop down list.
    2. Select the Source to use from the drop down list.

    Orientation

    Choose either Portrait or Landscape orientation for your output.

Delivery
  1. Specify the number of Retry Attempts Output Manager should try if an error is encountered on the first attempt to print the file.
  2. Check the Spool all items as a single print job box if the recipient wants to have documents batched together and printed at the same time.
Exceptions

The Exceptions dialog window allows for the configuration of printing supplemental documents to different printers than the default printer (see General dialog above). If no printer is defined for a specific supplemental document, the document will be printed to the default printer.

An example of this would be for a CAD drawing configured as a supplemental document. It may have special printing requirements that the default printer cannot handle. In this case, the drawing would be routed to a printer that can meet the requirements of the document.

 

The Exceptions dialog window is enabled only if supplemental documents has been licensed. It will not be visible if you do not have supplemental documents.
