Set Up Work Order Options

The Work Order Options screen allows you to select or change printing options, etc.

Caution: If you are operating FrameReady on a network, then these default settings must be set up on the Host, otherwise they will revert back to their original setting when you shut down.

Main Menu: Open the Options tab in the Work Orders section

"Order Taken By" Field

  • The name in the Order Taken By field appears on every new Work Order (ideal for a one person shop).

  • Leave the default field blank to force a name entry for staff when they fill out a Work Order. 

Pause on Preview Radio Buttons

  • Check Yes to display a preview of the document and requires you to click the Continue button in order to see the Print Dialog box. This pause allows you to also save the document as a PDF by clicking on "Save As PDF..." before it prints.

  • Check No to display a preview of the document, however, it will not pause but will either advance to the Print Dialog box or move directly to printing. This provides a faster option while still allowing you to verify the document before printing.

  • Check Don't Preview and FrameReady will not display a preview of the document. Instead, it will display a blank white area (if you have set the Print Dialog box to display on the screen), or it will simply cause the screen to flash briefly as it sends the document to the printer.

Show Print dialog box before printing:

  • Yes - shows the Print dialog box before printing. This allows you to print more than one copy, change printers, or select special features of your printer or cancel the print job.

  • No - causes the document to be sent to the printer without any further prompts. A faster option.S
