Printer Allocation

The printer allocation in Traveller allows the user to decide on what printer he or she wishes to print on. To access this, select the Options and tools from the main tool bar and then Printer Allocation.

The following will be displayed.

The view option will be currently ticked; this will view the print job The Print option currently un-ticked will require the user to print the job manually.

If the view is not selected and the print was the job will be printed without any preview been displayed.

The printer name is taken from the print manager at the time Traveller run. A common problem is when the printer name is changed in the windows print manager. You have to enter into Traveller Printer allocation to reselect the printer. Making sure you close Traveller down and restart, to ensure that the revised printer name is refreshed by Traveller. To alter the printer name, select the drop down for each print job and select the printer required.

You can use the SET ALL PRINTERS option if required; this will select the same printer for all jobs. Using the drop down, select the printer and then press SET ALL PRINTERS.


Remember Traveller uses standard windows print settings. If the jobs does not print then check your windows settings to ensure that the printer driver and printer are online and active.
