This option allows you to select any available printers set up on your system. The printer specified in this option will be the printer on which all reports and documents will automatically be printed when reports and documents are generated, and the Printer option is selected, on the Send Report To field on any Report, List or Document Options screen.

To Select the Printer:

1. Click on the Setup→Preferences→Printer menu option.
   - Keyboard Access: Press the Alt+S+P+R keys on your keyboard.
   The Select the printer screen is displayed:
   
   
2. Click on the drop-down list, to select any of the available printers installed on your system.
   - If you have selected a dot-matrix printer, you need to click on the Page Setup button. The Dot-matrix Printer Paper Setup screen will be one where you need to select the option for which you are likely to use the most (Documents, Statements or Others) and to set the margins and the size of the paper in the dot-matrix printer.
3. After selecting the printer and doing the necessary page setup for a dot-matrix printer (if a dot matrix printer was selected), click on the OK button to save your changes and exit this screen.

You may have two or more printers installed on your system, for example a dot matrix printer and a laser printer and you wish to print some reports on the dot matrix printer and others on the laser printer. If this is the case, it is recommended that you select the printer on which most of your reports will be printed as the default printer.

Should you wish to print specific reports or documents to another printer installed on your system, you should print the report to the screen and when the report screen is displayed click on the Print icon. A Select the printer screen will be displayed with the name of the default printer as your printer option. You may (from the Select a printer screen) then select another available printer on your system to which the specific report can be printed.
