Abstract
BiLog: Printer Relationships..Configuring Duplex Printing with Report Separation
Body
I have a love-hate relationship with office printers. Our relationship flourishes when I remember its access code, and my printout waits patiently for me to pick it up. But our relationship plummets, when I hear beep…beep…beep, and the words ‘printer jam’ display. As I loudly disassemble the printer’s drawers and toner cartridge in a fruitless search of a mangled crumb of paper, my frustration and choice of vocabulary skyrockets.
You may also have a complex relationship with your office printers. One way you may want to configure your printer to better meet your needs, is to enable V7 Duplex Printing with Report Separation. This will enable you to print on both the front and back of a sheet of paper, and have each new record display on the front of a new piece of paper - so each job can be distributed to different individuals/jobs.
To describe how this can be configured, imagine you have three workorder (WO) records to print: WO 1001, WO 1002, WO 1003
WO 1001 is 3 pages long
WO 1002 is 1 page long
