Activate the checkbox Spooler in order that the Touch Control is
not blocked by printing out a report so that you can continue
working.
Note!
The Touch Control prints the reports with a fixed resolution of 300 dpi.
If you are using a printer with a resolution of 360 dpi (or a multiple,
e. g. Epson) then the text will be printed out somewhat smaller than
with printers with a resolution of 300 dpi (or a multiple, e. g. Canon or
HP).
