Printer Selection using the SDK

32 Views

I have a challange and am trying to determine if the SDK can be used to solve the problem I have.

My customer has a need to automatically print a Sales Order to a specific printer that is determined by Item Group and another value contained in a UDF. Basically Orders for a certain Item Gruop and before a certain time of the day will print on one of 2 specific printers. I know I can print the Sales Order to the user's default printer automatically without using the SDK but I need to print to one of two printers automatically and have the printer selection transparent to the person entering the Sales Order, that is the SDK determine which printer to print to. I would prefer to use a User Defined Table that would contain the Printer Names and the Printer Cut off times to determine which printer to print to. Is this possible useing the SDK? And can I determine the User's default PLD form using the SDK so I can print the correct Form to the Correct printer when the Add button is clicked on the Sales Order entry form?

I hope the experts here understand what I am trying to accomplish by my explaination

Thanks in advance!
