Deprecated Feature

Microsoft Office will no longer be used as an option for an office suite supported by the Email Printing feature. This is due to changes made by Microsoft to eliminate automating Microsoft Office applications by 3rd party software solutions. Vasion provides support for the free and open-source office suite LibreOffice. LibreOffice is a project of The Document Foundation and OpenOffice.org. We have tested numerous office documents with the latest versions of LibreOffice (6.4.5 and 6.3.6) and found each document prints correctly. The installer for all operating systems is available on the Download LibreOffice page.
