Printer installed - forms and labels

 

Warning about forms and labels

 

To use the Form and label design screen a printer must be installed on the computer

 

Form and label design does not run if NO printer is installed

 

This does NOT mean that a printer has to be physically available just that the printer software must be installed.

 

Check if a printer is installed by looking at the available printers on the Start menu in Windows. 'Start - Settings - Printers'.

 

If the list of printers is blank then no printers are installed. If necessary install a printer by using the options at the Windows 'Printers' screen.

 

It is rare for a PC not to have some sort of printer software installed but this problem can occur, for example, on a laptop that is not used for printing or on a computer that has been recently re-configured.

 

 

Notes

 

- Form and label design is for printed labels and forms and includes an on-screen preview of the printed label or form so the program must have a printer installed to calculate the correct preview display and printed layout.
