Report to printer

Project description

Beta License: AGPL-3 OCA/report-print-send Translate me on Weblate Try me on Runbot

This module allows users to send reports to a printer attached to the server.

It adds an optional behaviour on reports to send it directly to a printer.

  • Send to Client is the default behaviour providing you a downloadable PDF

  • Send to Printer prints the report on selected printer

It detects trays on printers installation plus permits to select the paper source on which you want to print directly.

Report behaviour is defined by settings.

You will find this option on default user config, on default report config and on specific config per user per report.

This allows you to dedicate a specific paper source for example for preprinted paper such as payment slip.

Settings can be configured:

  • globally

  • per user

  • per report

  • per user and report

Usage

Guidelines for use:

  • To update the CUPS printers in Settings > Printing > Update Printers from CUPS

  • To print a report on a specific printer or tray, you can change these in Settings > Printing > Reports to define default behaviour.

  • To print a report on a specific printer and/or tray for a user, you can change these in Settings > Printing > Reports in Specific actions per user

  • Users may also select a default action, printer or tray in their preferences.

When no tray is configured for a report and a user, the default tray setup on the CUPS server is used.
