    [Warning] Warning

    Be careful which printer you use for test printing. Each time you print to a different physical or virtual (XPS, PDF) printer, you use one printer seat.

    To make sure you don't exceed your printer seat limit during test printing, read more about how printer-seat-based licensing works.

If your test print fails or you can't print, see My labels don't print.
