The Black Ice Printer Drivers have a built-in feature to email converted files right after the conversion. When email sending is enabled, a send email dialog comes up after every print job where the recipients can be entered. Emails can be sent silently and also to predefined recipients.
For sending emails with Modern Authentication (OAUTH2 with Gmail or Outlook 365), please see our Print2Email product.
NOTE: The Email sending feature requires .NET Framework version 4.0 or higher!
The email settings can be specified either on the Email tab of the Printer Manager or on the Filename Generation tab of the Printing Preferences.
This section covers the following information:
TIP: The Printer Manager can set each Printer Driver or Agent Printer to specific recipients for different tasks or jobs.
To specify multiple Email addresses in the To, CC and BCC fields the Email addresses have to be separated by semicolon characters (“;”). For example: recipient1@domain.com;recipient2@domain.com
Send a Printed Document in an Email
After clicking the Send printed document in email checkbox on the Filename Generation tab, the Edit Email Settings button becomes active. Before sending a converted document in an email, make sure the email settings are configured properly. More information on email configuration can be found in the Edit Email Settings section of this manual.
When email sending is enabled, a send email dialog comes up after every print job (unless the Send emails silently option is checked).
Users can set the font type, font size, or the color of the email body and edit the text to be bold, italic, or underlined. By clicking on the Attachment button, or by right-clicking on the attachment, users can open, add, rename, remove attachments, or copy the filename of an attachment.
Having specified the necessary fields, click on Send to email the message.
Limitations:
· The Generate output in memory and the Disable output file options must be disabled on the File Formats tab to use the Send printed document in email feature. To send the printed document in email without saving the file on the computer, please make sure the Delete every file, including attachment, after the email is sent option is enabled in the Email Settings.
· The Email sending feature requires .NET Framework version 4.0 or higher.
· Please make sure the Send printed document in email option is enabled during installation, otherwise, the option will be grayed out and cannot be used.
