Printer selection by Code

KiCo

Hi all,

I found an old post http://mibuso.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=6350 but I don't really understand it.
However I think it's nearly similar to what I want.

I use NAV 40 SP3 and I want to print a report twice. First on a real printer and again on an other printer (PDF). How can I handle it without getting the request form twice?

Can someone help me?

If you use a PDF printer like PDFCreator, there is a Save and print option.

This way you can create the PDF and have it print to the printer you want automatically.

plus lots of PDFcreator posts on this website if you search for "PDFCreator"

Thanks for quick help, but I need it also for printing on a fax printer and a real printer.
Is there any possibility to handle it in one code unit to get two prints, e.g. a function PrintAndFax() or kind of that?

so you want "at the same time"
1)create a PDF
2)Send it to a Fax printer
3)Send it to a Regular Printer

is this correct?

KiCo

Yes that's correct!
It's possible to create one report for each printer but I want to have a better solution, so I don't have to make each change of the report in all the printer related reports.

kind regards
