PRN is a print to file format that is created using an HP print driver. The PRN is a spooled print file that contains all the information typically sent to the printer when printing through the driver. Instead of sending this information to the printer it is saved in a file and can be printed later without a PC or a driver. Creating a PRN: • Insert thumb drive into PC • From the document application select File, and Print • Select an HP print driver (example the P3010 Series PCL or P3010 Series PS driver) • Check the "Print to file" box on the print window • Click on the OK button • The file directory window pops up • Name the file • Select the thumb drive in the directory to save the print to file to the thumb drive • The document name will look like [file name].prn and be readable by the walk-up USB This will be the most efficient way to print unsupported file types, such a word (.doc), excel (.xls) or PowerPoint (.ppt) formats PostScript files can also be printed with the walk up USB. These files will have the extension .ps. PostScript is a page description language that was created by Adobe that describes how the page(s) should be printed. If a customer has another file format other than the PDF, PRN or PS that needs to be printed they will need to change the file format using software or creating a .prn file using an HP print driver. NOTE: Changing the file extension does not change the file format and the file will not print correctly using walk up USB. UNSUPPORTED DEVICES AND PROTOCOLS The USB Walk Up Printing does NOT support: • CD-ROM Drives • Hard Disks Drives • Floppy Drives • USB 1.0 (low speed), • USB 1.1 (low & full speed) • On-the-go • Devices larger then 2GB (Device larger that 2 GB may cause an error that requires the user to power cycle the printer before it can operate normally. NOTE: This is not an inclusive list of what is not supported. This list includes the most common devices and protocols. If there are questions, please refer to the supported devices and protocols section. If an unsupported USB drive is used the following error messages may appear: USB Accessory is not functional or Unsupported USB accessory detected
