The driver gets updated regularly works well with Windows and has been there in the market for the last fifteen years and the QuickBooks uses one or the other version of this product. The “printer driver” that interfaces with Microsoft Windows is the subject of all of these variables so far.
The “ABS printer Driver” that is installed with QuickBooks 2013 is used by one component of QuickBooks that is a third-party component- “the Business Plan Tool”. Now the next question arises is what this “business plan tool” is?
To date, many articles have been written about the QuickBook’s unable to locate PDF viewer, as it is the most frustrating issue of the software. In the Windows version, QuickBooks uses the “print driver” approach to create a PDF file which is the source of the problem for the Windows installation.
The software creates a bit complicated process while printing the PDF files. It prints to a special printer driver which turns the data into a printed format, and this printed format is then turned into a PDF file. The process could have been easier but the above-mentioned process is most widely used by the program.
Now that we know, how this whole thing works here is what you would need to do when you are unable to locate a PDF viewer or if your QuickBooks PDF converter not working.
It is the company/ business planning/budgeting menu. But if you want to save the business plan in PDF format the 2011 and 2012 versions of QuickBooks you can’t. This is the only reason why QuickBooks introduced that driver as an add-on product.
