Do I have to print the ticket to return it?

Is it absolutely necessary to print a ticket before returning it?

If so, is there a way to print to pdf?

We would like to eliminate on waste.

  • Yes. Setup a NULL printer and print to that. Then you have no waste.

    Goto -> Devices and Printers -> Add a Printer -> Printer was not listed -> Add a local printer - > Use existing port -> Select Generic for manufacture and Generic text only as a the printer.-> uncheck set as default and do not share.

    It should show as an available ticket printer. Print to it and you are done.

    If you have a printer server you could add it to the server and make it part of deployed printers if your orgs is setup like that.

  • Hi Donna,

     

    In most cases, you should be able to delete the lineitem, but we also have a fake boca set up for things like this.  Or, if you have a lot of tickets you need to fake print, you can batch print to a file, and then delete the file. 

     

    Cheers,

    Kathleen

  • You could write a stored procedure that sets the tickets to TPD from SPD for a certain MOS or something similar. We did that for our pass purchases so they could immediately be returned and exchanged for other tickets online.

  • A ticket does have to be marked printed in order to be returned. However, you can set up a NULL printer (a generic/text-only printer pointing to the NULL port) and in essence "print to nowhere". 

    To do this, create a new generic/text-only printer. In the printer properties, navigate to the Ports tab and select the NUL: port as the destination. If the NUL: port doesn't exist, you can create it by clicking Add Port.
