   1. The image will display on screen.
2. The link for the image will display in the web address bar and will be similar to http://cr.test.clintelsystems.com/system_images/footer
3. Note down everything after your IP or web address, in this case we ignore http://cr.test.clintelsystems.com and note down: system_images/footer
4. If the image is too large, you can resize it in the browser by adding the following to the address bar.
   1. To resize to 400px wide and 40px high i.e  http://cr.test.clintelsystems.com/system_images/footer/size_with/400x40
   2. You can play with different sizes and when you find one that works note for the link e.g. system_images/footer/size_with/400x40

Edit the Printing Template to Include the Footer
