On this tab, you can specify the default printer and digital scale device (for automated fulfillment operations) to be used for your user account. In the table, you can list the reports to which you want to assign default printers and specify the printer to be used to print each carrier's labels.

Table 16. Printers by Report Table

In this table, you can list reports that you regularly print and specify the default printer to be used when you print each of these reports. When you print a report from the list, the system uses the assigned printer.

For each report that requires printing, a mailing should be created beforehand on the preferences form that corresponds to the functionality of the specific report. For example, for purchasing-related reports, mailings would be created on the Mailing & Printing tab of the Purchase Orders Preferences (PO101000) form. You should ask a system administrator if such a mailing exists and request any needed assistance if it does not.

Because labels are printed by using reports, you can also use this table to configure the printing of labels for a specific carrier on a particular printer. This capability may be useful for users who print carrier labels when the carrier has a specific label size. In this case, too, a mailing should be created beforehand and assigned to the report that is used for printing the labels of this carrier; a system administrator may be able to assist you in finding or creating the needed mailing. For details, see To Specify Default Printers for Selection.

The table toolbar includes only standard buttons. For the list of standard buttons, see Table Toolbar.
