OnPremise Local Printers not working

Posted on by MS-13061243-0 4
Hi Guys,
 
I currently have a problem with our OnPremis Business Central and local printers.
 
We have installed printers on the Business Central Server.
So far so good, but when we select them in the reports to print directly from them, nothing happens.
The client that wants to print the report then gets the pdf downloaded instead of printing...
 
Has anyone had similar experiences?
Is this intentional or is it no longer possible to operate local printers on the server?
 
I know that it is no longer possible to print on the client side, but printing from the server should actually work?

    Is it a problem with the settings of Document Sending Profile?
     
     
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks.

    Thanks for the quick answer... 

    So basically there is no possibility to add local printers from the standard Business Central... (except through in-house development or other software).
     
    I don't really understand why local printers are displayed in the printer management if they are not supported?
