Has anyone had any experience in speeding up the invoice printing process. We are using an Epson DFX-8000 on a print server and the epson driver.

It takes about 1.5-2 hours to print our invoices.

Any Ideas....
 
That is ludicrous. ZHave you tried this on a different printer? Is it the printer or the software? How many invoicves do you print on each run? Software Sales, Training and Support for Macola, Crystal Reports and Goldmine

We print anywhere from 100-500 invoices each nite, It can take upto 2hrs waiting to post and do ASN's.

Its not that the print head moves slow it is moving fast.

Has anyone had experience with high volume invoice printing?
 
Ok, now I get it. Have you ever considered an electronic forms package?

ReForm is an electronic forms package I have interfaced with Macola 7.6 and Macola ES and it can read the invoice preferecne (actually a user defined field on the Customer Master record) and during the invoice run, it can either print a hard copy of the invoice on plain paper, fax the invoice, or email the invoice as a .pdf attachment.

Also, unlike Macola's forms, you can bring in your own bitmap logo and graphics, and print on plain paper instead of preprinted forms. With this kind of volume, the avings on your preprinted forms could easily pay for the software and a high speed laser printer. You can use ReForm for all your other forms too - POs, Sales Order Acknowledgements, Statements, even checks.
