Fast Print Overview

Fast Print allows you to print documents without confirmation messages. Use Fast Print when you want to print a single copy to the default printer without changing text formatting or other options provided on the standard print form. You can print with one click when you use Fast Print with the lexis.com® Print/Download Utility. Fast Print requires a one-time setup procedure.
