eDoc Practice

For those of you who are wondering if you can print eDocs which are downloaded from the web, there is a way to test your ability to do so for at least one type. It will give you the general idea. (I got the links from a message posted back in the spring on the Notaries Wanted Forum here on NotaryRotary.com.)

1) Download the "PCL INDEX" utilities ( http://www.mrgdocs.com/download/mrgpclindex.exe ) in your download directory or your desktop and save it.

2) If the program does not set up automatically, do the set up.

3) Then go to http://www.lenderssigningservice.com/testfile.mrf and download that file to your desktop.

4) On my computer, the program set up in number 1 above, does not show up in my list of programs (the one at [start] button), so I use explorer.exe to navigate around until I find the program. Do Right click [start] || Explore

5) If your computer puts programs in the same place mine does, by default, you can go into C:\Program Files\MRGDocs\PCLIndex\BIN and double click on PCLIndex.exe to run the print utility.

It will open up a window.

6)In this printer utility, go to ||File||Open|| and

7)Remembering you left the testfile.mrf on the Desktop, now navigate to your Desktop. (This is the file you downloaded in number 3) Double click on it to open.

8) You will have a list of docs.

9) Check (select) one or more of the docs listed.

10) Go up to ||Print|| and select your HP //or PCL// capable printer, if it is not already selected.

11) Next, while having ||Print|| open, make a selection of how much you want to print.

If you are PCL capable to the extent this eDoc utility requires you should be able to do it.

You should have docs printing without further work.

Actually, if steps 1 and 2 were successful :

1) Download the "PCL INDEX" utilities ( http://www.mrgdocs.com/download/mrgpclindex.exe ) in your download directory or your desktop and save it.

2) If the program does not set up automatically, do the set up.

When it comes to step 3:

3) Then go to http://www.lenderssigningservice.com/testfile.mrf

click on OPEN rather than SAVE when prompted, it should automatically start the PCLindex. From there you can select your printer, if not already selected, and print the documents.

(Selecting OPEN instead of SAVE when prompted, still downloads the file, but places it in the temporary directory and launches it. If the application, PCLindex, was properly installed, it should have created a file association for files with the "mrf" extension to launch the PCLindex application. Just makes things a bit easier and less intimidating.)

I am left handed, so I did it backwards. (;>)

Now, that I think about it, it seems like I came about the way because I save everything to the hard drive to scan it for viruses. It's just a habit.

I do that with all executables. But data files that launch executables, I frequently open "online". They are still downloaded to my PC (temporary file) so NAV checks them coming in.
