BOCA Printer not showing up in Tessitura - Mac

Hi there,

I am attempting to install a Boca printer to print orders from Mac. I have the Boca installed, printed a test page from the print queue, and it shows up under the printer set-up menu in Tess but doesn't show up as a ticket printer.

Any idea how to fix this? I have restarted Tess, Citrix, deleted it and re-added the printer, and tried to re-add it with a generic driver. No luck!

Any tips appreciated! Hopefully this is the correct section for my question.

Thanks!

    Hi Madison,

    Thank you for your question! In order to print tickets from a Mac (in RAMP or locally) a Windows emulator application (like Parallels) needs to run on the Mac. Macs do not natively recognize the Generic/Text printer driver and it is only when a Windows emulator is installed on the Mac that the Generic/Text driver will be recognized so that the user will see these printers as ticket printers in Tessitura.

    I hope this information is helpful. Please let us know if you have further questions, thank you!
