Printing > Managing print batches

You can create new printing batches, duplicate a print batch, and delete a printing batch. You can also rename a print batch. Sometimes it is easier to duplicate an existing batch, and make modifications to this new copy, instead of making a new batch from scratch.

You can also assign a shortcut key to a printing batch. For example, P can be assigned to the 5x7 Qty. 2 batch, so at any time, you can simply press P to add the currently selected images to the 5x7 Qty. 2 printing batch in order to print the images quickly.
