Torsten:

You will need to contact support@digital-metaphors.com. While these should
work, there is no implementation for these method in the source code.

Demo #124 in the main reports demo project shows hwo to send a page
selection to the printer. The same method can be used to send a list of
pages to the device:

{print pages 1 and 30 }
ppTextToPageList('1,30', Report.PrinterDevice.PageList, True);

{print pages 1 through 30 }
ppTextToPageList('1-30', Report.PrinterDevice.PageList, True);

Demo #122 shows how to print to multiple devices. You should be able to
print to multiple printer devices, each with their own page list to print.

These are old methods from version 2.0 I believe. They aren't implemented
anymore. However, we should reimplement them with the current architecture.
They would have to read the device and set it to print a page / page list
when the before print fires. Thanks, for pointing this out.
