Every user of the system can specify their own print medium and specify default printers for printing various reports. The settings selected apply to the individual user and will follow the user upon login, regardless of the PC.
The Reports tab
Print medium: Select whether the default print medium should be Preview, Printer, Fax or E-mail. The print medium can be overridden in most cases regardless of the choice.
Print medium for sales and invoicing: In addition to Preview, Printer, Fax or E-mail you can select "Transfer from the contact" when printing sales and invoicing reports. If you select "transfer from the contact", the print medium chosen for the contact will be used when printing sales and invoicing reports.
Default report area: Specify which reports are to be used in the Report module. Company database reports (company name) is selected if you have edited one or more reports and want to print these out as printouts. Common reports, is selected if you wish to print out the default reports included with the system.
Format of the E-mail attachment: If you print to E-mail, you can choose between the following formats for the attachment: HTML, PDF or RTF.
Copy to printer when printing E-mail/fax: Mark this if you want a copy on paper as well.
Create activity when printing E-mail/fax: Mark this if you want to create an activity for each E-mail or fax you send.
If you want to display a Detailed heading, Footer, Front page or Select printer on printouts, you can mark the selection here. If you want to view and change settings for the report module mark the Show settings in report module checkbox.
The Printer Settings tab
Different reports can easily be sent to different printers: packing lists and pick lists to the warehouse printer, invoice copies to the accountant, invoices to the sales department, while other reports can in turn be printed out for the management.
You can specify the desired printer driver for each of these printouts if you do not wish to use Windows’ default printer for printing. The settings selected apply to the individual user and will follow the user upon login, regardless of the PC. If a specific printer is defined for a specific report, this will override the printer defined here.
Levels for printer settings:
There are 3 levels of printer settings in Mamut. In addition to this, in most modules it is possible to select the printer when printing.
First level: If no printer settings are specified, Windows’ default printer is used.
Second level: The printer settings selected in the Printer settings tab apply to the individual user and override the Windows’ default printer.
Third level: The printer settings selected directly for reports via report editing, override other printer settings. This saves detailed settings for name, driver, source, driver settings, etc, in the report itself.
Finally, in most modules in Mamut you can select to choose the printer when printing. When printing you will be able to select which printer is to be used for that precise print job.
