From time to time we hear of customers who want to print scheduled reports. They want their report to be sitting in the printer waiting for them in the morning, that sort of thing. CUIC doesn't support this as built-in functionality, but you can do it using Microsoft Outlook.

As long as the email is coming to your inbox, you can tell Outlook to print it automatically. This does require Outlook to be running when the email arrives, otherwise it will only be printed when you fire Outlook back up. So if you turn your computer off at night you'll be out of luck with this one.

Setting this up is dead simple. Outlook has a Rules and Alerts menu option which allows you to automatically perform actions when certain emails come in, and one of these actions is to print the email:



You'll need to set up the criteria to recognize the emails you want to print, either by subject or sender (if your scheduler is configured to send from, say cuicreports@yourcompany.com). If you do this, any emails matching your criteria will automatically be printed to your computer's default printer.
