Setting up the Invoice Auto Print extension

Setting up the Invoice Auto Print extension

This guide shows you how to switch on the Invoice Auto Print extension so posted invoices print automatically. For what the extension does and why you'd use it, see Invoice Auto Print extension: what it does.

Before you start

Auto Print sends invoices to a NexerIQ printer agent, so make sure the printer you want to use is already set up and available. You'll select it during configuration, so it helps to know which printer should receive your invoices.

Install and enable

  1. Go to Settings → Marketplace Extensions.
  2. Find the Invoice Auto Print card (search for "auto print" if it's quicker), and click it to review the details and required permissions.
  3. Click Install to add it to your system.
  4. Click Enable. A configuration drawer opens on the right — set the options below, then click Enable.

Settings

These settings are available in the configuration drawer when you enable the extension and any time afterwards via Configure:

  • Always print — print every posted invoice automatically. This is on by default. When you turn it off, invoices aren't printed automatically; instead staff use the per-invoice toggle to decide.
  • Printer — the printer to send invoices to. Choose the registered printer that should receive your invoice copies.

Using it day to day

Once enabled with Always print on and a printer chosen, you don't need to do anything — each time an invoice is posted, a PDF is generated and sent to that printer automatically. If you turn Always print off, the invoice screen prompts staff to print after issuing, so they stay in control of which invoices come out on paper.

Tip: if printing doesn't happen, check that a Printer is selected in the settings and that the printer agent is online. Without a printer chosen, Auto Print has nowhere to send the job and will quietly skip it.
