Introduction

Most printing in Alma is done using browser printing - just like printing a web page.

Printing hold slips automatically

Expand

Circulation desk staff can view slips that they have previously printed and reprint them if necessary. See https://knowledge.exlibrisgroup.com/Alma/Product_Documentation/010Alma_Online_Help_(English)/050Administration/060Advanced_Tools/Printouts_Queue#Managing_the_Printout_Queue.

Hold slips will print automatically via a print daemon, similar to how they print with Aleph. More information on using the print daemon will be added when that is configured.

Printing 

  • Seeing what slips you printed, reprinting slips as needed 

  • Admin > Printing > Printouts Queue 

  • Printouts remain in Alma for 30 days (we can’t control this) 

  • Print queues – how hold slips are printed, when they print 

  • Some libraries will manually print their hold slips, some will use print daemon 

  • If a slip or subset of slips needs to be reprinted, go to Admin > Printing > Printouts Queue and look for “pending” or “printed” jobs, depending on context. Use facets on the left to filter down to the printer.
