Printing Methods

Alma manages printing via emailing, using one of three setups:

Printing Method	Description	What LTS needs in order to configure
Alma Quick Print	Alma sends print jobs through the browser's print dialog menu – user must click/key through the print dialog box every time.	No LTS setup – user just checks the "Quick Print Enabled" checkbox in the Alma desk location dropdown menu. Note that using quickprint requires an email address to be configured, and users must still "choose" a printer when using Quick Print.
Alma Printouts Queue	Alma provides options to allow printouts, slips, and letters to be aggregated in a print queue and printed from your browser. Using this option, instead of sending printouts to an email address assigned to the printer, the printouts will be saved in the printouts queue, which can be accessed at any time by authorized staff to review and send the relevant printouts to a printer via the browser.	Queue management requires an additional Alma permission; Contact LTS support.
Email-enabled networked printer	Alma prints directly to an email-enabled network printer that has its own email address. (BER is the only known library with this setup.)	Email address associated with the printer
Manual printing by library	Alma sends print jobs to an existing library/user email account (e.g. lamcirc@fas.harvard.edu). Library staff must print emails either manually or by setting up an email client rule.	Email address that will receive print jobs
