Printing Multiple Documents

Laserfiche Snapshot is typically used to print the file that is currently open in a Windows application. However, Snapshot can also simultaneously print multiple files that are selected in a file management application, such as Windows Explorer (to print from Windows Explorer, Snapshot must be the default printer).

Note: Certain types of files must be printed one at time from their native Windows application. To check if a file can be printed from a file management application, right-click it and look for a Print command. This capability is provided by the file’s native application.

Note: If you are performing an unattended batch print job of many documents, you may want to enabled batch processing mode in Snapshot. See Options: Generate Pages for more information.

To simultaneously print multiple documents using Laserfiche Snapshot

  1. Make sure Laserfiche Snapshot is the default printer.
  2. Open a file management application (such as Windows Explorer).
  3. Select the desired files.
  4. Right-click the desired documents, and select Print.
  5. The Laserfiche Snapshot dialog box, which displays the properties assigned to that document, may appear after each document is printed, displaying the current user's default settings for how image and text files are generated. Make any changes, and click OK. If the assigned template contains a required field, that field must be filled in to save the document to the repository.

Note: When printing from the network, the Laserfiche Snapshot dialog box will not appear. Administrator-defined settings will be applied to printed documents.
