Different label sizes?

Post by noestervemb » Sat Oct 15, 2016 10:42 am

I use different size labels for different things. Got a dymo 450 twin turbo that can print 2 sizes at the same time. I can add it as 2 printers with 2 different names and then in open dental i can request to use the prompt for printer so i can select the size i want. But it there any easier way? I cant find a way to see a specific label to always print to a specific printer (or any other sheets for that matter). And under printer you can only definie one. I assume there is no workaround other than what i am doing now. I guess the simplest would be if you could specify on sheets level what printer you would want to use?

No, you cannot set a specific printer for a specific sheet, we only let you set a specific printer for specific sheet types. So all label sheets will print to one printer.

The best thing about a boolean is even if you are wrong, you are only off by a bit.

Ok, that is what i thought and my workaround asking for the printer prompt does work. Thanks for letting me know.
