🖨️ Print requirements
For each job, you will receive two sets of documents:
Named Tenant
All Other Occupants
You must print:
2 copies of each set (so 4 total printouts per job)
1 copy for posting
1 copy for mailing + affidavit/notary
⚠️ Plan ahead for printing delays
These jobs are often sent in bulk in concentrated areas, and print shops (like FedEx Office) may have delays. Build in extra time so you still meet the 4-day turnaround.

Printing is taking too long
These jobs are deadline-driven (4 days). Plan print time into your route and try to print early to avoid shop delays.
These jobs are highly time-sensitive, and the 4-day turnaround is critical for the client. If you run into any issues (printing delays, access problems, missing unit numbers, or safety concerns), document everything in the app and flag the job immediately so we can help resolve it fast.
