Printer Settings
This application demonstrates how to change the report printer settings at runtime using code.
- There are four new report properties that allow you to easily retrieve and set PaperSize, PaperOrientation, PaperSource, and PrinterDuplex for the report printer options. All of these are demonstrated.
- There is also a new method called PrinterSetup that provides a Windows standard printer setup window to allow the user to change the printer properties directly at runtime. This is demonstrated as well.
The two methods are independent of each other. For example, changing the Windows standard printer setup will not alter the report printer settings and vice-versa. These new properties and the new method give you much more control over how the report is printed.
