Printer Selection Rules

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

We use RF scanners and wireless label printers paired with those scanners. After speaking to some users they told me that apparently before when they would release a production order through the RF scanners, the label printer would automatically print out a label printer that would include Lot #'s, Item description, and some other details on the label but ever since they went to having NAV hosted by an MSP this no longer is the case.

I did some research and found that maybe it has something to do with Printer Selection rules which there does not seem to be any at this time.

My question is how would I make the connection between telling NAV when this user post or processes this transaction, print label XYZ from wireless printer, how does the logic work?

    Hi, for the standard:

    How to: Specify Printer Selection for Reports

    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics-nav/how-to--specify-printer-selection-for-reports

    But as far as I know, the standard system does not have the function of RF scanners, this requires the development of some interfaces or the use of Web Service, and it is best to deploy with partners.

    Hope this helps as well.

    Thanks.

    I understand that part but I guess my question is. How does this then get applied to work through RF scanners? Is there any further configuration that is required?
