How do you verify a printer before sending reports from Acumatica?

Hi everyone,

I'm working on a printing workflow in Acumatica and I'm trying to make it a little more reliable.

Before sending an invoice or report to a printer, I'd like to have a quick way to confirm that the printer is actually producing good output. Checking whether the printer is online isn't always enough, since a printer can accept a job while still having issues such as faded text, missing colors, streaks, or alignment problems.

For example, if a printer has recently had an ink or toner change, paper jam, or maintenance, I'd prefer to run a simple test print first rather than discovering the problem after several Acumatica documents have already been printed.

Does anyone here use a printer test or verification step before running important Acumatica print jobs?

I'm particularly interested in whether people rely on DeviceHub/printer status alone, or whether you also use a physical test page to check the actual output.

What has worked well for you without adding too much extra work to the normal printing process?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
