Batch Printing
The batch printing allows you to print badges in advance.
- You may define which badge groups you wish to print. When printing, the badges will print in alphabetical order.
- You may also define the size of the batch you print. It is suggested you start with small batches initially. Once you print a badge, it will not be printed again in the batch.
