Step 1 Adding and Configuring a Printer Interface

When an APM is set up to print using the local print engine, there must be a local printer connected to the machine. In most cases, the generic Hot Folder Interface is already setup as a placeholder until further configuration occurs.

1. Click on the Printer Configuration button in the Category Navigation Pane.
2. Click on the Add Printer option from the Primary Navigation Pane.
3. Select the printer interface you wish to add from the list of drivers.
4. Enter a name for the printer (preferably something simple and unique), and press the Add button.

**Note: Repeat Steps 1-4, as needed, to setup each printer interface. When you add a new printer, it is displayed in the list of printers in the Primary Navigation Pane.

Once your printer interfaces have been added, you will need to configure the settings in each individual interface.

1. Click to select the appropriate printer from the list in the Primary Navigation Pane.
2. The configuration settings for your selected interface will display in the Customization Pane.

The APM software is compatible with a wide variety of printer models. To obtain detailed instructions on configuring the settings for a specific model printer, refer to the Table of Contents for the appropriate Appendix for each of the interfaces applicable to your setup.

3. Repeat for any additional printers.
