Name (Printer) |
The Name option in the Print dialog specifies the printer to which BarTender sends the print job. Use this option to select a printer from a list of all installed Windows printers. The default setting is the printer that was last specified as the default printer in the Printers dialog of Windows Control Panel. Several of the selected printer's settings are displayed immediately below the Name option.
For your convenience, the printer setting is saved as part of the BarTender document. Therefore, the next time that you need to print the same items, all you need to do is load the document and print it.

When a document is loaded, BarTender looks for a printer that has exactly the same name (including spaces and punctuation marks) as the printer that was selected the last time the document was saved. If it does not find one, it looks for a printer of the same type and uses the first one it finds. If it can find no printer of the same type, it uses the Windows default printer. |
To make sure that your template is configured to have the correct printer specifications, we recommend that you select a printer before you begin to design your templates. This is especially true if your design contains barcodes. The different barcode density ranges for laser and dot matrix printers might affect the size of the barcode that fits on your item. For example, a barcode that is printed by a laser printer will be shorter than the same barcode that is printed by a high resolution thermal printer.
