Report To Printer

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

Report behaviour is defined by settings.

Settings can be configured:

  • globaly

  • per user

  • per report

  • per user and report

Installation

sudo apt-get install cups
sudo apt-get install libcups2-dev
sudo apt-get install python-dev OR sudo apt-get install python3-dev
sudo easy_install pycups OR sudo pip install pycups

Configuration

After installing enable the “Printing / Print User” option under access rights to give users the ability to view the print menu.

Usage

To show all available printers for your server, use the Settings/Configuration/Printing/Update Printers from CUPS wizard.

Then go to the user profile and set the users printing action and default printer.

Caveat

The notification when a report is sent to a printer will not be displayed for the deprecated report types (RML, Webkit, …).
