Printing the reports through marked sets is not a well documented process and can be confusing at the very least. This article will attempt to shed some light on the process by describing how to insert a print command into the program, print a hard copy and create an electronic copy of the report.

1. With MARKED SETS closed, go to FILE|PRINTING|REPORT WINDOW PRINT SETUP…

2. Click the check boxes for PRINTER and FILE…

3. Go to EDIT|PREFERENCES and click on SETUP…

4. Using the scroll bar, find LOCK MARKED SETS, and uncheck the LOCK MARKED SETS check box such that the marked sets can be edited…

5. Go to VIEW|OTHER WINDOWS and choose MARKED SETS…

6. Go back to FILE|PRINTING|REPORT WINDOW PRINT SETUP. At this point, take note that another check box is enabled called USE GLOBAL PRINT SETTINGS.

7. Step 1 click the check box FILE…

8. Step 2 browse to where the pdf’s will be sent.

9. Step 3 click the check box PRINTER…

10. Step 4 once the PRINTER check box has been checked the check box for USE GLOBAL PRINT SETTINGS check box needs to be checked…

(Note that the two boxes previously checked are now grayed out.)

11. Close the MARKED SETS window.

12. Go to FILE|PRINTING|REPORT WINDOW PRINT SETUP and uncheck the FILE and PRINTER check boxes.

13. Open the MARKED SETS window. Choose the marked set that needs editing. While the marked set is highlighted, mark the PRINT COMMAND in the edit window…

14. Exit from the MARKED SETS window.

15. Go to EDIT|PREFERENCES and click on SETUP. Using the scroll bar, find the LOCK MARKED SETS check box and enable it. This setting prevents unintended changes from occurring without deliberate steps being taken to facilitate the change.

It is very important to understand that each of the PRINT OPTIONS windows that have been used in the article are separate and distinct windows that operate independently of each other.
