New products will default to use the Hotfolder driver for printing. If you would like to route them differently, you will need to add the products to your apmconfig\_products\_custom.xml file on Lab 50, then use the Setup Wizard on Lab 50 to configure routing. To configure this file...

1. In Notepad (or better, Notepad++), open apmconfig\_products\_custom.xml (located in C:\Program Files\Lucidiom Lab 50\Tools\PrintServer). If this file does not yet exist, open a new file, and from apmconfig\_products.xml, copy top two lines of the apmconfig\_products.xml and the bottom line into a new xml file and save it as apmconfig\_products\_custom.xml. It will look like this (the order of the items doesn't matter. To check that you didn't screw up something, you should be able to open this file in a browser...if you have made any mistakes in syntax or formatting, it will show you where to fix.:  
     
   Print product:

   ```xml
   <?xml version="1.0" ?>
   <products units="all">
   <product name="4x6 Fancy Print" description="4x6 Fancy Print" width="6000in" height="4000in" minwidth="800" minheight="530" position="9003" id="9003" type="1" />
   </products>
   ```

   Creative products

   ```xml
   <?xml version="1.0" ?>
   <products units="all">
   <product width="12000in" minheight="0" position="9000" height="12000in" description="12x12 12-Month Calendar" id="9000" minwidth="0" package_type="calendar"/>
   </products>
   ```
2. Replace the ID and position code with the same product ID used for your product. If you are using a duplicated product ID, you should instead use the Fulfillment ID field which will serve as a fake Product ID for the purposes of fulfillment. You should use a unique number in the 9000-9999 block. The product ID and position code should use the same number. Don’t repeat a number you have already used.
3. Save as apmconfig\_products\_custom.xml in the same folder location where the apmconfig\_products.xml is located, which for a Lab 50 machine is C:\Program Files\Lucidiom Lab 50\Tools\PrintServer
4. Configure as needed in Lab 50's Setup Wizard. (Settings > Fulfillment > Print Server)
