Abstract
Using Thunderbird (email client) for printing hold slips has been effective for most situations. Yet this doesn’t mean that we cannot explore other options, especially when you encounter sudden changes that caused email headers to be printed on the hold slips unintentionally. After realising that the cause was an unwanted software update, we decided to create a tool that can be maintained within the resources of our team and to make it free from unwanted changes. In this presentation we'll be sharing the technicalities of our break out story from the accustomed solution, by developing our own python based Printer-Daemon for printing our hold slips.
