Controls the way a document prints.
Name
Specifies the printer that you want to use. You can select from a list of all the configured printers available for printing.
Properties
Opens the Printer Document Properties Dialog Box.
Status
Displays the current status of the selected printer. This area is read-only.
Type

Where
Displays the printer path or location for the currently selected printer. This area is read-only.
Comment

Print to file
Prints the document to a file, instead of a printer. You specify the file's name on the Print to file dialog box after you set the check box and click OK on the Print dialog box. This saves a document to a file instead of routing it directly to a printer or plotter. Then, you can print from a computer that does not have the application installed or print to a printer other than the one you currently have installed.
In SmartSketch when you position the pointer in this dialog box and right-click, you can access a variety of standard commands that help you manage your documents more efficiently. For example, if you select a document in the list and then right-click, you can then click the Select command on the shortcut menu to automatically open the document. You can also create shortcuts; send the document somewhere else, and other activities.

Sheets
