Set one printer for tags and another for reports

Your postal paperwork will always print to the default printer.

For your tags, it’s best to edit the tag template and associate the tag printer with that template. Here are the steps to do this:

  1. Go into our Control Panel, then into Devices and Printers. 
  2. Set your tag printer as the default printer, then get properties on that printer and choose the paper size and paper source for that printer. Hit Apply and OK. 
  3. Launch AccuZIP6, then open any database. 
  4. Edit menu > Label. Navigate to the AccuZIP6 5.0\iPresort\Reports folder. If these are cut sheet tray tags with an Intelligent Mail Barcode on them, choose traytagimbc.lbx. Here are some more options: 

Cut sheet sack tags: Sacktag.lbx 
Continuous feed sack tags: sacktag.lbx 
Cut sheet tray tags without the IMB: traytagc.lbx 

  1. Open the appropriate tag template. Pull down the File menu and choose Page Setup. 
  2. Make sure the name of your tag printer appears at the bottom of the screen. Check the Save Printer Environment box. 
  3. Click on Page Setup. Make sure the correct paper size and paper source are selected. 
  4. Click OK, then click OK again. Close the template and click Yes to save the changes. 
  5. Back in your Devices and Printers area of your control panel, right click on your Mailing Statements printer, and choose Set As Default.

Now your tags and your reports will print to different printers.

I wanted to take a minute to write accolades for your employee Eric Lambeth. I have been calling on Eric for training and help in the Accuzip software since May and I want you to know that from a client standpoint, he is second to none! Eric has gone way above and beyond in helping me learn and navigate your software as well as helping us through some crazy situations we have encountered. It is clearly evident that he knows this software inside and out. It is also evident that Eric loves the customer and is willing to do whatever it takes to help – he has even answered emails and called me on the weekend to help through some stuff I was unsure of! I cannot express enough how wonderful Eric has been for our organization. I will tell you that I came to this organization with a background in BCC software with plans to transition to BCC software. Eric’s knowledge, guidance, training, and willingness to help at all hours of the day/week has sold me on Accuzip! Your software solution is more user friendly and the support staff far exceeds BCC! I am also looking forward to investigating your other software solutions.
