How to setup Check-in using Edge on a PC in Churchteams

Setting up Check-in using Edge on a PC:

Install Label Printer

  • Install the label printer software and driver on the PC. The disk may have come with the printer or you may have to download it from the label printer website.  Make sure it is working with a test print.  You can open the Notepad application, type a few words and click print.
  • On the printers and scanners page, click on the printer then Manage (in Windows 10) to set it as the default printer. On the same page, select Printing Preferences to set the default paper size to the size of label you are using (2.4 for Brother Printer). 

Customize Settings In Edge

Note:  Be sure to download the latest version of Edge HERE.  The pre-installed version does not work.

  • Open Edge, login to Churchteams and start check-in (Check-in / Start Check-in) with any Check-in view.
  • Pick anyone in a group class or class associated with that check-in view and click print.  This will open a Print screen.
  • On the Print screen choose your default printer for the Destination, and select Landscape for Layout.
  • Click “More Settings” to view additional settings
  • Choose your Paper size (For Brother printer choose 2.4)

Save For Quick Access

  • Right click on the Edge shortcut icon on the desktop (not in the task bar) and click Properties.
  • In the Target field go to the end of the filename, click the space bar once and add:
