Universal Printer -- new mode or API

Post by anupmistry » Sun Dec 10, 2017 1:51 am

Local PDF Reader preview: the document will be pushed and the local Acrobat Reader will open with the generated PDF file. The user can print it, or save a copy on his local disk drive.

Print on the user's default printer: the document will be automatically pushed to the default user's printer (the local printing driver is included into the TSplus connection client).

Select a local printer: The user can select one of his local printer (the local printing driver is included into the TSplus connection client).
As of 10.50 above are the 3 modes that the 'Universal Printer' supports. Would be very useful if there was a 4th mode or API. An application running on the TSPlus Server can select a local printer without a selector. So rather that the User making the selection, the application would make the selection for the user automatically. No printer selection screen should appear on the client side.

Example scenarios:
  • * Accounting app - the check (cheque) printer (loaded with pre-printed forms) would be different than an entry journal (plain paper).
  • * Accounting app - Several invoices are printed together. Batch printing. Each invoice is spooled separately. Way you have it now, user would have to select the Printer Each time (as it would not be their default printer).
