Brady Workstation PRN files can be saved directly on the i7500 printer. For more information on the type of files that can be stored on printers, refer to .BWS Files versus .PRN Files & Saving BWS Files to Printers.
Store files on the printer:
- Make sure the printer is connected to the computer with the USB cable.
- On the printer, set the storage location setting to Internal Memory: i7500 - Adjust Printer Settings.
- In Brady Workstation software, open the file and go to the print screen and make any adjustments to quantity, collation, etc.
Note: When connected to the i7500 printer, the software provides options to either print the file immediately from the PC or to store onto the printer for later printing from the printer screen. The large blue PRINT / STORE button, in the lower right corner of the software, is used to toggle between these two options.
- Click the small arrow next to the PRINT.
- Select Store on Printer.
- Touch the STORE button and provide a filename when prompted.
Note: If any print settings are locked when the file is saved in BWS the corresponding settings in the printer will be grayed out.
To store files on multiple printers:
Connect the computer running Brady Workstation to each printer in turn, following the steps above to store files on the printer. This cannot be done using a USB drive.
