Printing is a key feature of On-Screen Takeoff and you can print most Tabs in On-Screen Takeoff.

• The information on the Bids, Takeoff, and Worksheet Tabs can be printed or exported into various formats.

Notes

• Printing relies on the Windows Printing subsystem and the Printer drivers installed on your computer. Avoid disconnecting your "default" printer - it will cause problems with On-Screen Takeoff. If you regularly disconnect from a printer, set something like Microsoft's "Print to PDF" as your Windows Default printer
• Regularly check for printer driver updates from your printer's manufacturer and keep Windows up-to-date by installing all available Windows Updates regularly.

Printing is broken up into the Image Tab (Takeoff, Annotation, Plans) and pretty much everything else. We'll start with 'everything else'.
