Report Printer
Printer Margins
|
This option allows you to select a printer other than the default printer to use for reports. If this field is left blank, then the system will use the windows default printer.
Pressing this button will display a window allowing you to set the printer margins for all of the reports in ProEstimate HEAVY. For best results printing, we recommend that you set all four margins to ½”. However, some inkjet printers require a bottom margin of not less than ¾”.

There are some reports that do not have print options. In those cases, you can turn on or off printing of “gray bar” background lines using this option.
