Tabpage Print options |
Chapter: Designing new documenttypes |
In this tabpage, you can specify print options that are only applicable to this documenttype
- Default number of copies to print : Specify the number of copies that will be sent to the printer PER DOCUMENT. This is useful if you're using documents which consist of different colored pages (eg. Blue for sender, red for consignee etc). So if you're documents consist of 5 colored pages, set the 'default number of copies to print' to 5. Each time you click the print button, 5 copies will be sent to the printer.

- Printer and tray for this document:
- Use global printer settings (default) : With this option checked, no special settings or used for this documenttype, but the settings which are specified via Extra -> Settings -> Print options will be used.
- Always print this documenttype at the following printer and tray: When this option is checked, and a valid printer is selected, no printer-selection dialog will be shown when you print a document of this documenttype. Instead, the document is directly sent to the specified printer.
- Print scale : This option is almost never used. Only use this option if your printer has a scaling deviation. For example, if your printer prints a 50 mm line as a 48 mm line, then set the print scale as :
50 / 48 * 100 = 104,16%
