Print Command

The print (P) command is used to print a compendium report.  Reports can also be printed while being browsed, or printed on a monthly, quarterly or other regular basis using batch print (F10) from the main compendium screen.

 

Whichever method is used for printing reports, be aware it is not possible to cancel a print job after the enter key is pressed except by contacting the Office of Technology Services' Gold Camp Campus Help Desk or at the printer if it has a 'cancel print’ option.  


To print a report, type a P to the left of the desired report cycle and press enter. For example:

  • If there are multiple printers at your campus, your default printer is selected for you.  To change the printer, type the number corresponding to the selection at the prompt.

  • By default, 1 copy is selected to print.  If you need multiple copies of the report, type a number from 2 to 9.  

  • By default, all report lines are selected to print.  If you only want a certain range of lines to print, specify the 'from' and 'to' line numbers.  Note:  Leading zeros are not required.  

 

When the report is sent to the printer, the system will respond with a message indicating the name of the file, the printer and the number of copies.  To clear the message and return to the report cycle menu, press the enter key.
