NOTE: This documentation relates to an earlier version of the APM / Lab 50 software.

Visit the current documentation home.

The Windows Printer interface allows the APM or Lab 50 software to print orders generated from an APM to a printer(s) that are setup using a Windows driver.

Prerequisites

  1. The Windows driver for the printer needs to be properly installed and configured to print the correct size on the APM if the APM is to print locally or it should be installed on the machine running Lab 50 if that program is being used to manage the orders for printing.
  2. If Lab 50 is not present in the local installation, then at least one or more fulfillments must be enabled to print to a local printer connected to the APM. This is seen in the screenshot on below, taken from the main options of an enabled fulfillment in the Setup Wizard.
