Selecting the printer, and selecting printer DPI in the App:
- Before you begin, ensure that the mobile device is connected to the same network as the printer.
On the event list screen, tap the settings icon and tap Select a printer. Choose your preferred printer from the available list of connected printers.
On the next screen, Select a DPI for the chosen printer. Since the printer currently provided by Choose2rent is 203 DPI, select the same in the app.
- Open the lead list and test-print some badges to ensure that the printers are working well.
- Your printer is now set up, and you can start printing badges for your event.
