Select the printer for your login

NOTE: Not applicable for receipt printers in MPOS.

Select a printer. The setting on your login selects which printer is used for which activity. This means that as long as the computer where the printer is installed is on and Printnode is active, you can print from any computer as long as that printer is selected in the login. This allows you to print from your home computer to the office if the office printer and computer are on and Printnode is active.

1. Go to the Printer icon in the upper-right corner.
2. Choose the printer for the activity it will perform.
3. Press "Save."
   

The printer is now set up, and you have the ability to print. During accounting, the selected documents set for printing will do so, or if you print afterward, it will be printed as well.
