Utility for printing direct to default printer via adobe reader.

I just posted this in the Forms forum, but felt it was appropriate to mention here, too. If you feel the need to comment, please do it in the Forms forum so all comments will be in one place. Thanks.

No, Adobe stopped that happening many releases ago, for reasons that I don't understand but they will not change.

10g report printing - directly to default printer

I basically want to know how you can set or retrieve the clients default printer and assign it to des_name on the forms side. Thanks.

for windows only try this using webutil : it will pick up users default printer
-- use client_win_api_environment to select printer into local variable
v_printer_name := CLIENT_WIN_API_ENVIRONMENT.Read_Registry
('HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows', 'Device', true);
p_printer_name := (substr(v_printer_name, 1, instr(v_printer_name, ',' , 1)-1 ));
:control.printer_name := substr(p_printer_name, instr(p_printer_name, '\' , 3)+1);

Print automatically on default printer without having to confirm

Hello,
I was wondering if there is a way that an application (for exemple excel of Adobe reader) print without showing the printer popup ? The idea is that when we press print, it does automatically print on the default printer without having to click on OK.
THanks in advance for your help.

Hi Gontie,
Besides Matteo C said, the file created by Microsoft Office would print directly via default printer without any popup window.
What application did you using to print from.
If it's browser, this thread may be helpful to you:

Presets not taking affect when printing via adobe reader

I have discovered that after upgrading to Mavericks, when printing multiple page documents via Adobe Reader, it will not take on my 1-sided printing preset and instead prints 2-sided as per the default setting on the printer driver.
Has anyone come across this?

kirstyfiona wrote:
I dont seem to have the option for printing on both sides on the adobe print screen. In the past it would just use whatever preset you currently had set.
I seldom use Adobe Reader except for completing forms and printing them. Preview never seems to get those right. I did do some testing on my Mavericks machine and can confirm that Adobe Reader is ignoring a Preset I created for my EPSON WorkForce 1100. From the CUPS debugging log it would appear that Adobe Reader is bypassing the Apple print window. It would not therefore be picking up a Preset.
Wht make and model of printer are you using? If your prnter uses a PDE to set duplexing, I can imagine that Adobe Reader is not going that deep. It would look at the PPD and just use whatever is in there. If you let me know the printer make and model, I may be able to confirm that. I am not sure that will get you any closer to a sulution. It may help answer "why".

Print directly to the printer option in the Windows registry

I need to find the location for the option to "Print directly to the printer" in the Windows registry. I am trying to create a GPO to enable this option at login and I can't find the location for it. Is this possible to do? If not, is there another way to enable this at startup for all users? We are running Adobe Acrobat X on Windows 7 Enterprise 32-bit.
Thanks

I guess that those of use responding don't know enough about the process you are trying to implement to be of help. Printing to network drives has been an issue for folks for a long time and a lot seems to depend on the network. That is probably of zero help and all I can suggest is just to hang on for someone who hopefully has an idea. If we can get a better handle on what you are trying to do, we might be able to make suggestions. However, I think our answers are not going to be there for the registry issue.

Server created print ques printing directly to the printer

I'm trying to enforce quotas as well as push out a global set of printers (i.e. not setup locally) I can do this no problem, but my managed macs always print directly to the printer, not via my server.
I'm installing the printers locally on my server (printing directly to the I.P of the printer, then the corresponding ques appear automatically in the print service under server admin. I assumed that print jobs would be automatically parsed via the print service ques, and thus be able to enforce quotas.

I'm attempting to setup the very same thing. I haven't gotten to try pushing the print ques to the managed clients via wgm yet, as I can't even seem to get the quota system working at all.
I can get the que setup on the server, then add the printer to the client. When i pause the que on the server, the client print jobs are being held correctly, but there is no evidence that the quota system is even starting up or functioning correctly.
I can find alot of people complaining about the quota system being broken in 10.3 and 10.4, but I can't find anyone talking about 10.5's printer quota system at all.

PDF + Print directly to the printer

I need to have the print directly to the printer option enabled for a legacy app to print properly. However
with this option on PDF's will not print. Even when enabling the print as image option, it still fails. Does anyone have a solution?
*after testing, acrobat reader X seems to fix the issue. But i still don't know whats wrong. Does anyone know where i can find a changelog of the new version?

Please check that when you print to PDF, the Save as dialog might goes in background. Watch for blinking icon in the taskbar at the bottom. Click the icon and give output PDF name.
If this is the case then this is known problem at MS end. See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2567869
This problem comes when printing from 32bit apps on 64bit OS.

When using "Print Report" my default printer changes.

Hello,
I have the need to print two different kinds of reports to two different printers depending on which report it is. I use the Office toolkit and wire the correct printer for the report using the "Print Report" tool. However, each time I do this, it changes the default printer in Windows to the printer wired. I don't want to change the default printer just send the report to the specified printer. Is there a work around?
LV 8.0 through 2013, Win 7
CLA

Hi The Q,
a workaround could be to read first which the default printer is, then print your page with the printer you want and then reset the stored printer to default. The information which printer is the default printer can be read from the registry.
Hope this helps.
Mike

Firefox never suggests printing with my default printer

I'm using Windows 7. I've set my HP OfficeJet Pro printer as my default printer in Windows. However when attempting to printing a document from within Firefox, Firefox always suggests my PDF printer.
It's not difficult to select the correct printer, but I'm wondering why Firefox doesn't behave the way my other programs (Office, etc.) do when printing.

Never seen that before - posting code that shows this behaviour would be handy.
My guess would be that you have an errant VI.Print.Panel to Printer method hanging around somewhere in your code.
