Introduction
Features of local
printing
Standard 1.0
The Local Printing feature allows you to configure a printer
attached to a personal computer (PC) to receive reports and
other data from the NAC 2.5. The PC must be running MTE.
These printers are called local printers. They can be attached
directly to any PC that runs NAC 2.5 and MTE. These printers
can also be connected through a LAN and used by all the
supervisors.
A local printer, however, is not intended for high volume.
Printing may be slower than a dedicated system printer if the PC
is in real-time display mode or is currently interacting with the
display.
Through the Local Printing feature, you can do the following:
• Send a report to any local printer, even one used by another
supervisor.
• Send scheduled reports to the local printer.
• Queue reports to local printers.
• Print a variety of reports including tabular, graphic, data
stream, and system reports.
• Print screen snapshots by using the [Print] key. If you use
the [Print Screen] key, the international characters and
graph details may not print correctly.
