Description
The application helps you simplify and streamline work processes by letting you quickly find and print frequently used online forms directly from the home screen.
Note: The printer must have permission to access the network folder, FTP site, or Web site where the bookmark is stored. From the computer where the bookmark is stored, use sharing, security, and firewall settings to allow the printer at least a read access. For help, see the documentation that came with your operating system.
