TitleData Automation - Driver Settings (Cut/Tear-Off Mode/Heat Level/Etc.) Not Applying When Printing
Body
Issue/Symptoms

A printer with a cutter is not cutting, mirror print in the driver is not applying, tear-off mode is not working, heat level or print speed changes, or other settings in the driver are not working with Data Automation but do work when printing from Brady Workstation.

Resolution 

Change User Settings on DA Service when using a Printer that is not applying driver settings. Make sure the user also has appropriate driver permissions in the driver security tab. 

Note:
  • As of data automation 2.9 (Spring '21 release) the account must be a user account with admin rights, not a service account.
  • The user account configured must be the same account configured for security access in driver properties: Printer Drivers - Enable Driver Security Permissions
  • If the user's password changes, they will need to update it separately as well.

Configure the Driver

1. Go to start menu > Printers & Scanners > Manage > Printer Properties > Security Tab. 
2. Click Add and add the user account that will be used when Data Automation is run. 
3. Tick all the allow boxes for each permission and hit Apply.
