LabelMaker not automatically printing

Why can't I double click on my Label file to make it print?

When you double click on your *.ljd file it will not automatically print, it will simply run LabelMaker and nothing else.

Generally you will notice that the icon for the *.ljd will look like this:

If you set LabelMaker.exe as “Run as Administrator” in its location in the EzyNest\AutoTP\Labels folder you will then see the icon look like this:

​

NOTE: If it does not automatically look like the image above, you should try Right Clicking on the file, and going to the Properties. Then in the 'General' tab you will see "opens with:" use the Change button to go search for the application you want, but do not use the LabelMaker.exe that is already in the suggested list, browse to it again in the above mentioned location and apply the change. Then you should see the icon change.

Now if you double click on the *.ljd file it should run LabelMaker.exe and print the file in the same action.
