Reports and forms

Preparing your computer

A great deal of the printing process is controlled by software used to send information to your printer. This software, commonly known as printer driver software, is normally supplied by your printer's manufacturer. Printer drivers play a large part in determining how - and whether - your printer prints the information sent by your computer. In many cases, printer drivers are already installed on your computer when you purchase it; sometimes they are supplied on a CD when you purchase your printer. Printer drivers are not included in the MYOB software package.

Printer drivers are often the cause of printing problems. If a printer driver isn't working properly, any number of situations may occur. Some results of printer driver problems include incorrect-looking documents, missing pages, the inability to print multiple copies of a document, and the inability to print altogether.

Occasionally, printer manufacturers update their printer driver software. MYOB FirstEdge is designed to take advantage of the most recent printer drivers; as a result, if you experience printing problems, your printer's printer driver may not be up to date. If you want to know if you have the most recent printer driver software for your printer, contact your printer manufacturer.
