Can I change printers during print?

edited July 2004 in General
Hi,

I'm already able to change the paperbin during printing of a report (the
first page is printed from a different tray) and now I want to change
printers during printing. Is that possible?

TIA,

Ronald

    Hi Ronald,

    The only way to do this in ReportBuilder would be to use Section Style
    Subreports to separate out each section you need printed to a different
    printer and then define separate print jobs for each subreport. If you
    place a Section Subreport on a report you can set the NewPrintJob property
    to True and then print this information to any printer you would like.
    Other than that, it is impossible to send certain pieces of a report to
    separate printers.
