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.

====Default Printer Setup====
Certain settings are universal and can be accessed from user settings.  Go to **User preferences > Printer**.

Here you can set up the default printer settings. These settings will affect all print outs. Press **Save** to continue.

Other settings can be changed for a specific 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.

The next time you print, your settings will be pulled in from your user file, so the document will print on letter size again.
====Set up an Alternate Printer====
There is also an option to set up an alternate printer. You can save this option and then have the choice between the default and the alternate. Choose **Other > Alternate Printer** to add an alternate printer.
