 =====Printer Settings=====
-Certain settings are universal for all users and can be accessed from user settings.  Go to **User preferences > Printer**.
+Printers in CATS are set on a per-user basis. Each user can set up a default printer to be used to print documents from CATS. A different printer can be picked each time you print a different document.

-Here you can set up the default printer settings. These settings will affect all users.

-Other settings can be changed for each print job. Call up the Printer Setup menu to change the options for this specific printing. For example when printing a invoice, you can choose Printer Setup from the print menu, change the letter size to Legal, then Save and print.

+====Set up an Alternate Printer====
