Using PrintPage1 with Outlook’s built-in print commands

You may be in the habit of using Outlook’s built-in commands for printing and find that having to learn a different command to use PrintPage1 effectively means that you sometimes forget.  This could mean you waste paper by printing more than you need.  To avoid this you can set Outlook to use PrintPage1's Trim and Print feature automatically whenever you use one of the following built-in commands:

  • the Print item on the File menu
  • the Print button on the standard toolbar
  • the CTRL+P keyboard shortcut

 

Click the Setup button on the PrintPage1 toolbar (Spanner & hammer icon) and selected the Print command options tab.  There you can choose whether to have the built-in print commands invoke PrintPage1 or not.

Editing discard points

PrintPage1 comes with a number of Discard Points already defined.  If you click the Setup button on the PrintPage1 toolbar you can see them in a grid.  Each one has a tick in the column headed Active.  If you click to remove a tick then that Discard Point will be ignored.

 

You can add your own discard points.  You might want to do this if you regularly print out emails that have the same unwanted text at the bottom – this might be a standard legal disclaimer or an anti-virus check message.  Just enter the phrase that starts the text you want to discard.  You do not need to enter much so long as it is distinctive and unlikely to occur in the body of a normal message.

 

The Discard Points are kept in a file called PrintPage1discardPoints.xml in your my documents folder.  If you have added your own Discard Points it may be useful to email the Discard Points file to colleagues.  All they need to do when they receive it is save it to their My documents folder and Outlook will find it.

How licensing works

When you first download PrintPage1 you can use it free.  PrintPage1 keeps track of the number of times you have used it to discard text and print.  You are allowed 20 such prints. From that point on you will need a licence to use PrintPage1.

 

On the PrintPage1 toolbar is a Request Licence button with a key as its icon.  This is only visible on an unlicensed copy of PrintPage1.  If you click PrintPage1 tries to contact our licence database over the Internet and checks whether you are licenced.  If for any reason the database cannot be contacted you will be offered the chance of sending a licence request by normal email.

How corporate licensing works

We can provide companies with corporate licences that mean they do not have to name individual users in advance.   If all your users have email addresses with the same ending, eg. @mycompany.com, you can order a set number of licences and the appropriate number of users who have an email address ending @mycompany.com will be licenced on a first-come-first-served basis.

Feedback

We value all feedback.  It helps us to improve the product and meet your needs.  That is why there is a Feedback button on the PrintPage1 toolbar which makes it really easy to send us an email telling us what you think.
