Overview

...

The Virtual Print Driver (VPD), Hyland Software Virtual Printer, for OnBase appears as a standard printer in Windows Applications and enables users to electronically print documents directly into OnBase. The printer can prompt for an import dialog or save the documents into a network directory to be swept into a scan queue.  VPD can eliminate the expensive practice of printing documents in order to scan them back into OnBase.

 

 

How to Install

The VPD is installed automatically with the OnBase 13.0 17 Client installation in the kbox. If OnBase 13 17 is already installed and you don't have the Hyland Virtual Printer in your list of available printers, you can reinstall OnBase from kbox and this will provide you with the Hyland Software Virtual Printer.

1. Open OnBase Client (standard Client or Unity) if it's not already open
