Printer Selection: Hardware Station Additions
LS Retail has extended the Business Central Printer Selections functionality to enable BackOffice printing through Hardware Station. The new fields for Hardware Station printing are:
Field | Description |
---|---|
Hardware Station Printer | Here you can set the printer where you want to direct your printing for the active Printer Selection entry. If a printer is also selected in the Printer Name field in the entry, it will take priority and all printing will be directed to that printer. Before you can select a printer you first need to open the POS Hardware Profile card and run the Detect Hardware action. This will load all available printers into the POS Printer table. |
Hardware Station Host | This field stores the information about where the Hardware Station service is located, including the port. Default is localhost:8082 When you select a Hardware Station Printer, this field will be automatically filled with host information from the POS Printer table. |
Hardware Station Url | This field is a non-editable connection string URL consisting of the Host and Printer name along with fixed commands. |
Run Request Page | This field specifies if you want the Report Request Page to be opened before printing, or if the report should go directly to the printer. |
Printer Paper Kind | This field specifies the Paper Kind to use for specific reports. Options available are values from the non-extendable Enum: "Printer Paper Kind". |
