How to Verify That QZ Tray Is Installed and Connected
After installing QZ Tray, it's important to verify that it is running properly and connected to AccelerList. A successful connection allows AccelerList to communicate directly with your printer and send print jobs automatically.
Signs That QZ Tray Is Installed Successfully
1. QZ Tray Is Running on Your Computer
When QZ Tray is running, you should see the QZ Tray icon in your system tray:
Windows
Look for the QZ Tray icon near the clock in the bottom-right corner of your screen.
Mac
Look for the QZ Tray icon in the menu bar at the top of your screen.
If the icon is visible, QZ Tray is running.
2. AccelerList Shows a Connected Status
When you access a printing page in AccelerList, the QZ Tray status should indicate that it is connected.
If QZ Tray is not connected, you may see:
Connection warnings
Printer selection issues
Print buttons that do not respond
3. Your Printer Appears in AccelerList
Navigate to your printing settings and verify that your printer is listed.
Common printers include:

If your printer appears in the printer selection list, AccelerList is successfully communicating with QZ Tray.
4. You Can Print a Test Label
The easiest way to confirm everything is working is to print a test label.

QZ Tray is installed correctly
AccelerList is connected
Your printer is properly configured
