Selecting a printer to print to ...

Dennis smith-4
Has anyone done anything about being able select a printer
programatically?

I know about RequestPrinter/RequestHostPrinter, but that insists on
asking the user, I don't want to ask the user.

Dennis,

Please have a look at GHWindowsPrinterSettings. You'll find the parcel and
its documentation in $(VISUALWORKS)\contributed\heeg.

Have fun

Georg

Re: Selecting a printer to print to ...

This is a bit out of context, but we gave up printing to local
printers. We are now implementing "printing" using Seaside, opening
the information in a web browser on the desktop, which customer then
can print from.

Also look at what Google will do with Chrome OS:

Kind regards
Runar
