Edition can also allow you to print documents, spreadsheets, presentations, e-mail and
more from your Palm OS device.
Note: The Edit button of the PrintSetup application also allows you to alter the advanced
parameters of PrintBoy, like the connection type. By default, the infrared connection is
enabled.

Printing Tables To print a table at any time you can choose the Print Table option from
the Data Pro menu. When you choose the Print Table option, Data Pro will return to the
Main Screen and begin to format the data in your latest run. A progress indicator will be
displayed. After the formatting is complete, you will be asked to connect your Palm OS
device to your printer. At this point you must align your infrared transmitters, plug in
your USB cable, or otherwise connect your Palm OS device to your printer. Once
connected, press the OK button to send the table to the printer. If you have multiple data
runs in your Data Pro session, the other runs will be formatted and printed in order. Press
the Cancel button at any time to stop the Print Table operation.

Printing Screens (such as Graphs) To print an exact copy of any DataPro screen
choose the Print Screen option from the DataPro menu. Important: When you choose
the Print Screen option, your Palm OS device will immediately attempt to communicate
with your printer. It is important to align your infrared transmitter, plug in your USB
cable, or otherwise connect your Palm OS device to your printer before selecting this
option from the menu. The printed image will be the same size as the screen of your Palm
device.

Some printers or print drivers do not support graphical printing. (If so, you will be shown
an error indicating this limitation.) It is worthwhile to check for updated or newer printer
support at www.bachmannsoftware.com. The PrintBoy Premium Edition from Bachmann
Software gives you access to a wide array of printer types and models.
