Description

Prints the report, without opening a printer selector dialog, to the default printer defined at this machine.

This method cannot be used before the report OCX object is initialized. The COM object creation is - when not done before - created as part of the OpenReport method.

Note: When used in web applications, the output is sent to a printer defined at the webserver. This might not be accessible for an end-user.

  • Web (limited to printing at the webserver)
  • Windows
