PrintStation can be configured to automatically generate an email message when a job status is changed in PrintStation. The message can be copied to as many people as required by entering their email address in the CC List field.
You can select when a change in the order status will generate an email message as well as specifying the wording of the email. The example below describes how to configure PrintStation for the status type "Query Outstanding".
There are some specific requirements when creating an Order placed email. Please refer to the section Order Placed email in Configuring PrintStation regarding these requirements.
