Hi All,
I have a case where end users would select printer from dropdown box and then push print button to print the document silently. I have done that as following:
form1.main.printerDropdown::initialize - (JavaScript, client)
var l = app.printerNames.length;
for ( var i = 0; i < l; i++)
printerDropdown.addItem(app.printerNames[i]);
form1.main.printerDropdown::change - (JavaScript, client)
printerName.value=xfa.event.newText;
form1.main.printBtn::click - (JavaScript, client)
var doc=event.target;
var pp = doc.getPrintParams();
pp.interactive = pp.constants.interactionLevel.silent;
pp.NumCopies= 3;
pp.firstPage = 0;
pp.lastPage = (xfa.host.numPages -2);
pp.printerName=printerName.value;
event.target.print(pp);
However, end users do not need soft copy printer (adobe PDF, MS Windows XPS document writer, … etc) to be listed in the dropdown box. how to identify the printer type (printer or print to file) using JavaScript?
Please advise.
Thanks in advance.
Waseem.
