The Cirros print ticket

The print ticket is the Cirros window that opens when you print a document to Cirros. You choose how the job should print, check the preview and the cost, then send it.

Opening the print ticket

  1. Print as normal. In any application, select Print (usually File › Print).
  2. Choose the Cirros printer. Select Send to Cirros as the printer. In GovPrint organisations it is called Send to GovPrint.
  3. Select Print. The print ticket opens.
The Print screen in Microsoft Word with Send to Cirros selected as the printer
Choose Send to Cirros (or Send to GovPrint) as the printer, then select Print.

Direct Submission. If Direct Submission is turned on, the print ticket does not open: your job is sent straight to the cloud with the options you chose in the application.
