Send file to printer - Trond Hoyem - 14.10.2021

Hi

I have tried to find some posts on this topic, but so far no luck.

In a project I would need to create a CSV-file on the SL (this I know how to do), and send this file to a printer in the same network. Anyone has any idea how this can be achived?

As a plan B I am thinking that I can send the CSV to a FTP-server on a PC in the same network, but then the staff would have to start the printout from the PC, and there is no automatic printout.

I know that sending the report as an email would be easier, but this in inside a closed network in a military site, and so connectoin to Internet is not an option.

Some printers run an FTP server where you can upload a txt file to print. Example: https://oip.manual.canon/USRMA-0192-zz-SS-enUS/contents/08070000.html
It's also possible to print via HTTP or IPP but there's a specific protocol that has to be implemented.

OK, thx

I will investigate this option.
