displayed. A summary of the selected print options is displayed
in the bottom part of the dialog box.

similar to the printout window and also allows you to select
which markers will be sent to the printer. Choose a folder where

Please note the markers cannot be reread from the printer, so
any modifications made on the device will not be transferred to
the software.
