printer

Description

Specifies the printer to print to. Only the exact printer name strings as they appear on Internet Explorer's Print dialog can be specified. If the printer specified does not exist or is written incorrectly, printing will be directed to the default printer.

This a write-only property. With javacript, take care to double any backslash that appears in the printer name, as in the example below. Please note that providing an invalid name will not raise an error - the request will be ignored and the printer to use remain unchanged. To trap errors specifying the printer to use, use the currentPrinter property.

Syntax

printing.printer = sPrinterName

Example

    // print to \\FS-LYS-01\HP5n-759
    factory.printing.printer = "\\\\FS-LYS-01\\HP5n-759";
