Silent printing

edited September 2002 in Devices
We're using RBPro7. Is it possible to perform some sort of silent printing?
We want to specifiy all printer settings at runtime and do not need any
preview or print dialogs.

Thanks,

Oliver Kr?cken

    How about set showPrintDialog to be false

    To the previous answer add

    Set ShowCancelDialog to false;

    That was the first thing i have tried.....
    ...but the preview dialog always appears.

    Any further suggestions?

    Thanks,

    Hi Oliver,

    when working with templates you have to set these properties after the
    template is loaded.

    this is done easily

    to do this you should do the following :


    with ppReport1 do
    begin
    // Template loading


    // Printer assignments
    with PrinterSetup do
    begin
    PrinterName := iniPrinterName;
    BinName := iniBinName;
    end;
    DeviceType := dtPrinter;
    ShowPrinterDialog := False;
    Print;
    end;

    I think that the better way is use ppReport.PrintToDevices and PrinterSetup
    parameters you can set while disigning template.
