Displaying Printer Comments In AEEHR
Description
Adding printer comments to describe the location of the printer can be very helpful for new site go-lives. This can be accomplished by adding comments to the print drivers on the message server.
Once the comment is loaded, the printer will need to be refreshed via Allscripts Enterprise EHR. In the TWAdmin Workspace select Printing then Print Servers. Select the appropriate print server and click edit. To refresh you must inactivate then reactivate.
The result will show up in the end users print dialog screen after they select a printer.
Implementation Concerns
Inactivating a printer will require you to reroute users auto-print defaults to another printer. Therefore it is best do implement this feature upon adding the printer to the system.
