Under Catalog > Export Print Jobs you will find a feature called Print Jobs. This is designed to work in conjunction with Boca ticket printers. If you are using ePayTrak to sell theatre tickets using Options and Variants for assigned seating or general admission, this export can help you print tickets. This feature was included before all of the Ticketing Events capabilities. This is rarely used, but will still work if you need to print available tickets on a Boca Printer if you have one.

To Print Using a Boca Printer:
-
Open the software that was created by ePayTrak developers named EduTrak Printing. You will see a window similar to the one below.
-
Click the down arrow and select printer driver. Then select the correct Boca printer drivers and they will view in the Current Port section. If the drivers have been correctly installed, you will see Ready in the Printer State box.
-
To customize the look of your tickets, you can add text to the four fields listed Row 1 Text, Row 2 Text, etc.
-
Click Import File to import the file you exported from ePayTrak. Your tickets will automatically print.
-
The messages section will display your operating system and other system details.
You can print tickets manually with this newly created software as well. The Text rows are what will print on the Boca printer stock.
ePayTrak ticketing has improved vastly, making this process near obsolete.
