Setting Up Email for Prints
PiMS has the ability to format a print using Crystal Reports and
send the print as an attachment to an email. To send the print
via email, specify an email address instead of a printer share name in
the Printer Destination profile. Please refer to the Setting Up Printers page for more information on setting up printers.
