Completing the setup
To configure the paper size:
1.
In Control Panel -> Printers and Faxes, right-click your ticket-it printer and select “Printing
Preferences”.
2. Click the “Page Setup” tab.
2.
Click the “New” button under Stock to add a new label size.
3.
Enter Ticket-It as the name.
4.
Enter 100mm as the width.
5.
Enter 176mm as the height.
Note:
If you have your PC configured to US localisation settings, these values will be in inches!
You will need to convert these values into inches (tip: use an online converter).
6.
Set both Exposed Liner Width values to 0.
7.
Click Ok.
8.
Click “Advanced Options”, and then change “Default Orientation” to “180°”. If the printer is
shared, this setting will be in effect on other computers using the printer as well.
To assign the printer as the default in Ticket-It:
1.
Login to Ticket-It and click Administration.
Note:
if this is the first time you’ve used Ticket-It on this particular computer, you will need to go
to install the “Meadco’s Script” when prompted via a yellow bar at the top of the screen. The
item is installed correctly when the “Default Label Printer” and “Default Printer Page Size” boxes
are not greyed out. You MUST be using Internet Explorer for this to work.
2.
Scroll down to User Defaults.
3.
Set the “Default Label Printer” drop-down box to “Ticket-It” – or the name you selected for your
Ticket-It printer.
4.
Set “Default Printer Page Size” to “Ticket-It” – or the name you selected for the Ticket-It label
stock size.
5.
Click the green “Save” button beneath this section.
Notes:
Make sure the printer name assigned to the printer is always the same on every PC. If there is no
printer available on the computer with the same name as the Default Label Printer saved in
Ticket-It, Ticket-It will print to the printer set as Default under Windows’ Printers and Faxes
settings. This is often not the right printer.
Even if the printer is shared, you will need to create the custom page size on each client PC.
