UDI Printer Selections
To print labels from reports, set up the Printer Selections default page as usual.
Printing with label software, on the other hand, requires setting up the printer names on the separate Label Software Printer Selections page. This works similarly to the default page, whereby no field is mandatory.
Tip
From the Label Software Printer Selections page, switch to the default Printer Selections page by choosing the linked note text at the top of the page or by choosing the Report Printer Selection action.
Important
When outputting labels in preview mode (i.e. as a PDF download), label software printer selections are ignored.
The Label Software Printer Selections page is accessed using Tell Me. Choose the 
icon, enter Label Software Printer Selections, and then choose the related link.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| User ID | Specifies the ID of the user for whom you want to define a printer. Leave blank to apply to all users. |
| Label Layout Code | Specifies the UDI Label Layout code the printer is assigned to. Leave blank to apply to all label layouts. |
| Label Software Layout Code | Specifies the label software layout code the printer is assigned to. The value is calculated using the UDI Label Layout record. |
| Printer Name | Specifies the printer of the label software on which the report is to be printed. If the label software supports a standard layout, the printer name may be left blank. Enter the printer name directly or use the lookup. It may take some time to determine the available printer names the first time you open the page. |
Prioritization
If, based on the setup, several printers are applicable at the same time, they are prioritized in the following order.
| Priority | User ID | Label Layout Code |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | filled | filled |
| 2 | filled | blank |
| 3 | blank | filled |
| 4 | blank | blank |
Tip
Define a standard printer for all label prints by creating a new record and specifying only the printer name. If additional records are created for specific users or label layouts, these will take precedence.
