    Posted: 01 Jun 2007 at 6:28am
I m writing an application which requires a report to go directly the printer. I used crystalreportviewer and  its printreport() method to send it to printer but it always opens up print dialog. Is there any way to avoid/bypass print dialog? I read about printtoprinter method but its not available with report viewer.

Thanks in advance!

Hi naveenagg,
 
You can use PrintToPrinter() method to directly print the Crystal Report to printer. Ensure that you have a printer that is configured as the default printer.
 
Assuming that you declared a ReportDocument variable as rptDoc.
 
rptDoc.PrintToPrinter(1, False, 1, 1)
 
where:
1 - no of copies
False - no collate
1 - first page you want to print
1 - last page you want to print
 
You can change the values if you need to print more.
 
LOL
 
Regards,

Is there anyway to do this in Crystal XI?

Are you ONLY using CR XI? Then no, CR XI is like any app where it prompts you for which printer you want to use.
