Direct printing of a campaign

The head office can publish a Print campaign that is connected to a campaign. When printing, solely the products saved under the Print campaign will be printed, even if the main campaign contains more products.

The Print campaign appears under the Campaigns tab in the form of a printer icon to the left of the campaign name. In order to edit the signs before printing, you must go to the Printer Queue tab. If you click the printer icon next to the campaign name, the signs will be added to the printer queue and thereafter they will be printed without the option to edit them.
