ann Restore Old Printer After Auto Printing Plus OSX Yosemite Updates for 2empowerFM

[Chris Dragon]

Crestline, CA, Oct 6, 2014 - Dracoventions has released the only printer plug-in on the market that can restore the previously-selected printer after automating a print job. The new 2empowerFM Hands-Free Printer v3.4 has also been updated to support the upcoming OSX Yosemite release. All other 2empowerFM plug-ins were tested to already work with Yosemite.

Dracoventions continues to innovate in printer automation technology and stay ahead of the curve in supporting new OSX and FileMaker versions as they're released. Our latest batch of plug-ins eliminate warnings when one person uses a single-user license on multiple computers, allow a license to be uninstalled via a dialog, and fix a couple of bugs in Developer Assistant. You can learn more in the release notes. Plug-in updates can be found at 2empowerFM.com for both Macintosh and Windows.

More About Hands-Free Printer

Hands-Free Printer is a FileMaker Pro plug-in that lets you completely automate print jobs. It's the only plug-in that can individually control almost any printer option on both Windows and Macintosh, then restore the printer selected for the next manual print job.

- Automate print jobs to prevent costly mistakes like printing all records instead of current record.

- Make complex letter, label, and envelope print jobs easy even for new employees.

- Automate those infrequent print jobs that employees often forget how to print.

- Avoid use of confusing and error-prone groups of "Restore Print Settings".

- In many cases, only a single script needs to be updated if you get a new printer.

- No special software to install and no special requirements like turning on "access for assistive devices". Your system's default printer is never changed.
