In the Test Deck view, a list of precincts available for the election will appear. Click the name of the precinct you would like to print a test deck for or click All Precincts for the entire county. VotingWorks recommends to print one precinct at a time (in alphabetical order) given the large size of test decks.
Confirm the election and precinct information and click Print Test Deck. While printing, the print modal will show the status of the print job by precinct if printing for multiple all precincts.
Before printing the test deck, you'll first confirm that the Election Manager does not have any ballot results loaded by visiting the Tally tab. In this view, you'll be presented a Ballot Count by Precinct report which should read 0 for all precincts and the Total Ballot Count. To print a confirmed zero report, click View Official Full Election Tally and then the green Print Unofficial Tally Report button in the subsequent screen.
