13. Now you can start testing the new printer.

Start with printing tickets from within the ‘Artikelbeheer’(nl) - ‘Fiche Article’ (fr) page in Medialog.
If it doesn’t print at all then you should check previous steps again.

If it prints and the tickets don’t have the same look as before (too big left margin or top margin), contact helpdesk for further assistance.

By preference create a servicedesk ticket and mention following :
1. which printer you installed
2. on which user(s) (= login) for example ‘demo0102’
3. your remarks (e.g. left margin too big, …)
A member of helpdesk will then contact you.
