Automate Print Jobs with FileMaker Plug-in on Mac and Windows
July 27, 2011 in FileMaker
[prMac.com] Crestline, California - Dracoventions today is pleased to announce the immediate availability of 2empowerFM Hands-Free Printer v2.5 for FileMaker Pro. This release adds the ability to control the two-sided printing option on Macintosh and also adds OS X 10.7 Lion compatibility. The rest of the 2empowerFM plug-in family has also been tested to be Lion compatible.
About Hands-Free Printer:
Hands-Free Printer is the world's only FileMaker printer plug-in that can individually control every printer setting in the Windows Print and Print Setup dialogs along with similar options in the Mac OS X print dialog.
Mark Anderson of Floristware, who helped beta test the plug-in, says, "Earlier today I mentioned a "cross-platform printer control" plugin to a FileMaker developer and he freaked out. I believe a lot of people need this and have just given up on hoping for it."
2empowerFM Hands-Free Printer is like a robot that clicks and types options in the Print dialog faster than the eye can see. That means it works with almost any printer, allowing users to:
* Open the Print dialog, select your printer, set individual printer options, then print - all from a script with no user interaction required.
* Allow users to choose a few print options from a FileMaker layout, then let Hands-Free Printer take care of the rest.
* Guide users through complex print jobs where they are instructed to put in different types of paper or envelopes, then click a button to continue printing.
* Set each printer option independently, not as a group like with FileMaker's "restore print settings" feature. A few independent settings can replace dozens or even hundreds of "restore print settings" steps.
* The system default printer and default printer settings are never changed.
* No special system software or settings are required. There is no need to turn on "access for assistive devices" on Macintosh and no AppleScript or VBScript is used.
Pricing and Availability:
2empowerFM Hands-Free Printer v2.5 is a free upgrade for those who purchased the plug-in within the last year. New Hands-Free Printer licenses start at $89 for a single user and upgrades after a year are half price. Developer (redistribution) licenses are also available. Fully functional, 30-day demo copies can be downloaded with no sign-up required.
