1. Click the Preview button. 

2. Select XML, Document or PDF.

To resend a report, click the Resend button. Remember that the report is not regenerated. An XML file with destination parameters and a path to the archived PDF or Document file will be created and sent to the Lasernet server. When the resend process is complete, a journal is created to store information with resent parameters, and a checkbox in the Resend column is selected for such a record.

Cloud Print Connector Communication

Cloud Print Connector includes an option to get the Print job status back when printing a document. This ensures that all documents are successfully printed when running a document print test remotely.

Azure Storage Queue is used for communication between the Cloud Print Connector and the Lasernet FO Connector. A batch task retrieves messages from the Azure Storage Queue.

Information about a Print job is located in the Lasernet archive, and the Print job status can be easily retrieved. The Print job status is applicable when dealing with functionalities such as Original printing, resending with Force rerun, and resending a PDF file from the Lasernet Archive (resending without Force rerun).
