Adding printers to mijn.boekuwzending.com

On the printer page all the created printers will be displayed. This page can be found in the top right menu where your (company) name is displayed. If the integration is completed succesfully and the credentials are available there will be an option to add printers using Printer Toevoegen.

You will be directed towards a page where the available printers are displayed. These printers are retrieved from your PrintNode Client. It is important to note that only printers are shown connected to the computer(s) linked up with the PrintNode client. It is possible to select multiple printers and press 'Opslaan' to save the selection.

If desired you can also add a print profile to the printer to print using margins and choose the amount of label(s) per page, however this is not required.

Marking as default

To mark a printer as default you simply click the star icon. Once the printer is marked as default it can be unmarked by clicking the star icon again.

Only one printer can be marked as default at the same time. When selecting another printer as default the currently default selected printer will be unmarked as default.

Remove a printer

To delete a printer the trashbin icon can be clicked after which a confirmation pop-up will appear. Upon confirming the deletion of the selected printer the printer will be deleted. This can not be undune, however the printer could be added again using the steps in Adding printers to mijn.boekuwzending.com.

Printing

When everything is set-up correctly the printing option will be available, displayed by a printer-icon. This will be available in all the locations where label(s) and document(s) are available for download.
