To pick up this change, close all eFORMz windows and restart the eFORMz service.<\/p>\n
Now change the printer’s settings to use the Print Mirror option. From the eFORMz Composer, start the Director Toolkit. Navigate to the Printers tab to edit the ZPL printer.<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n
The Printer Configuration window opens. From the Devices field, edit the printer.<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n
From the Printer options field, select Add. In the Name field, select Print Mirror. From the Value field, select Yes. Click OK.<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n
Finally, save the configuration and restart the Composer to pick up the new printer setting.<\/p>\n
