Print Archive Guide

INTRODUCTION

Print Archive allows you to organize and store printed documents from the Travelport+ GDS. Documents are sorted by type and renamed accordingly for easy searching. Key benefits include:

  • Cost savings compared to standard printing, as documents can be printed only when needed.

  • Historical archive capabilities, with documents available for retrospective emailing and searching.

Requirements

  • Supported Operating Systems: Windows 10 or later, Windows Server 2012 R2 or later

  • Galileo Print Manager: Version 1.5 or later

Installation

  1. Download the application package.

  2. Extract the contents to the “C:\” directory.

  3. Add an itinerary printer in Galileo Print Manager

    • Set as “MIR to Disk” type.

    • Set the target directory to “C:\PrintArchive\10_sourcedir.”

    • For additional details on Galileo Print Manager, visit Travelport’s support page or contact your local Travelport support.

  4. Sign in to Smartpoint and connect the new itinerary printer.

  5. Open the PrintArchive directory and run PrintArchive.exe.

Directory Structure

  • 01_agent cpn – Stores AGENT coupons labeled with ticket number, airline code, issue date, and passenger name.

  • 02_psgr cpn – Stores PASSENGER receipts.

  • 03_uccf – Stores Universal Credit Charge Forms.

  • 04_itinerary – Stores itineraries.

  • 05_refund – Stores REFUND notices.

  • 06_emd – Stores EMD notices.

  • 10_sourcedir – Stores files generated by Galileo Print Manager.

  • 11_backupdir – Contains backups of unsorted and unrenamed files.

  • 12_log – Stores a log file of all operations performed by Print Archive.

  • 13_wrongdir – Stores any unidentifiable files.

Settings.xml This configuration file contains paths and directory names that can be modified, as well as the intervals during which Print Archive checks for new files in the source directory. Passenger coupons and itineraries can be hard to identify due to DYO setup; therefore, unique identifiers are used for these documents in settings.xml to ensure proper recognition.

PrintArchive.exe This executable must be running for Print Archive to function correctly. It’s recommended to configure Windows to run PrintArchive.exe at system startup.
