Posted on by Jagadeesh 520

Hi ALl,

I have 5 machines with a 3rd part application installed which triggers a particular report from NAV server. My requirement is from whichever machine the report is triggered, print should be populated from the respective printer attached to it. Is it possible in NAV 2016

    Hi Jagadeesh,

    There is currently no way to do that. NAV can only print to one printer at a time.

    You will need to customize it.

    In that case, you need modification to add another sub table and modify the process accordingly.

    Jagadeesh,

    You can specify the user id and have multiple records for the same report with different printers, so it will check the user id and will select the correct printer.

    Hi Avinash,

    Thanks for the reply, but this is not what i am looking for. I will not select the printer manually it should be automated.
