If you have sufficient privileges, you can send medical record documents to a local printer or server print queue to be printed.
OnBase Patient Window cannot print DICOM studies.
You can print documents using the HTML document viewer if you have sufficient privileges. Documents are first converted to a PDF, which you can then print using the PDF viewer's print option.
If the document is open in an external application, such as Microsoft Word, use the print option in the external application. For example, select File | Print from the application. In this case, OnBase print options are not used.
To print a document using the HTML viewer:
-
Perform one of the following actions:
- From an open document, click the Print toolbar button.
- Right-click a document in a Document Search Results list, then select Print.
- Select a document in a Document Search Results list, then click the Context Menu button in the upper-right corner and select Print.
The Print dialog box is displayed.
-
Select the appropriate print options. See the following table for descriptions of the available print options.
Option
Description
Print Format
Select a format of the paper to print to, based on size. Several different pre-configured page formats are available. The Default option prints to standard 8.5 inch by 11 inch paper.
Orientation
Select the orientation for the page, including:
Portrait: Prints the document in a vertical orientation
Landscape: Prints the document in a horizontal orientation
Auto Orientation: Selects the orientation automatically based on the document being printed.
Overlay Options
No Overlay: Prints the document without the associated overlay.
Print Overlay: Prints the document with the associated overlay. The overlay that is printed may be different than the overlay that is displayed, depending on the configuration of the Document Type.
Fax Compatible: Select this option if you are printing to a fax machine. OnBase arranges the overlay image in a way that faxing software can properly interpret. The overlay that is faxed may be different than the overlay that is displayed or printed, depending on the configuration of the Document Type.
Print Range
All: Prints all pages of the document(s).
Note:The All Print Range option is the only option available when printing PDF documents, or when printing from a Document Search Results list. To print a range of pages for a non-PDF document, you must open the document and print using the Print toolbar button.
Current Page: Prints the current page.
Print Range: Prints a range of pages in the document. Enter page numbers and/or page ranges, separated by commas. For example: 1,3,5-12.
Note:If you enter a complex range into this field, the pages are printed in the order entered. For example, if you entered 5, 1-3, 9, then page 5 of the document would be printed first, followed by pages 1, 2, 3, and 9. You cannot enter complex ranges when printing to a server print queue.
