Configure print types
A print type is a predefined configuration of how Strålfors or OneTooX print and handle a dispatch. For example, a print type defines the size of the page and envelope, A or B mail, single-sided or double-sided, and so on.
Print types in the SmartPost package
By default, the SmartPost package includes 9 print types as shown below. The print types are ordered according to the values in the Order column, and they are displayed in this order in the Send SmartPost dialog. You can use the print types as they are, modify the naming and the configurations to match your organization, or you can create new print types.

You create and configure print types in WorkZone Configurator. The print types that you create are listed in thePrint type field in the Send SmartPost dialog.
