How to print a report from X++ and change print settings in AX2012?

I have a concrete example for you – it should give a good idea how to do that even if your situation is a little bit different.

SrsReportRunController          controller = new SrsReportRunController();
SysUserLicenseCountRDPContract  rdpContract = new SysUserLicenseCountRDPContract();
SRSPrintDestinationSettings     settings;
 
// Define report and report design to use
controller.parmReportName(ssrsReportStr(SysUserLicenseCountReport, Report));
// Use execution mode appropriate to your situation
controller.parmExecutionMode(SysOperationExecutionMode::ScheduledBatch);
// Suppress report dialog
controller.parmShowDialog(false);
 
// Explicitly provide all required parameters
rdpContract.parmReportStateDate(systemDateGet());
controller.parmReportContract().parmRdpContract(rdpContract);
 
// Change print settings as needed
settings = controller.parmReportContract().parmPrintSettings();
settings.printMediumType(SRSPrintMediumType::File);
settings.fileFormat(SRSReportFileFormat::Excel);
settings.fileName(@'\\share\UserLicenseCount.xlsx');
 
// Execute the report
controller.startOperation();
