Page Comparison

Site

The site code where this printer resides, allows us to limit the choices when we are asking which printer to send the print job to.

Labels Only?

Predominantly used by flex to show only label printers when you are printing a label from flex. However is being used to stop those printers from being displayed in printer choices when they are not applicable.

Friendly Name

Pick a good name, avoid peoples names or generic, when you have multiple sites it is worthwhile having the site code.

e.g.

SN_DeliveryNotes_82
We suggest you append the end of the IP address to this as it makes it faster to find out the network address

Network Path

The server path to the printer it is ususally

\\<servername>\

<shareprintername> OR

<shareprintername>

Avoid using direct IP addresses in this column it should be the shared printer name from the server. Should you add the printer IP directly into this field Vision will try to print directly and if this does not work there is NOTHING stored and no log and no information so always use the server network share name.
