Body
Print to File with the A6500 (Labelmark Only - Not yet available in Brady Workstation)

This functionality is now available in Brady Workstation as of shell 4.10: How to Use Print to File with the A6500 in Brady Workstation

Changing the driver port to "File" sends the print jobs to a local folder location. This allows saving a .prn file of the job to portable media, such as a USB flash drive. End users can then take this flash drive to A6500 printers that are isolated from any PC or network connection. This feature is not available for the original Wraptor (discontinued), or when printing from Brady Workstation. 
  • Note: You must have A6500 firmware version 91188 or higher and printer driver 3.20 or higher.
