Printing from the Abilaonline.com Hosting Environment

Note:  This change takes effect September 16, 2017 and is a departure from the prior recommendation of using Net2Printer.

Printing in abilaonline.com now uses Redirected printers from your list of printers. “Redirected” in the hosted environment means your printer driver is not installed on the server but rather our hosted environment is redirecting to your locally installed printer driver instead. If you are not seeing any of your local printers, please go to KB article 27001.
