Hi;

  Marco is correct, using the DW's PRINT() command will print to printers defined on your Android devices. To print to a server based printer though, I use either of two methods ...

  • Save the DW object in PDF format (one example) into a database table's BLOB column. Then print the PDF from the DB table using a batch PB App .
  • Send the DW object's data to a Web Service (WS) and have the WS print the data to a network printer.

Food for thought. HTH

Regards ... Chris

Hi,

when you send a dw.print() command from an Appeon Mobile app, you will be able to select AirPrinter-compatible (iOS), Bluetooth or Google Cloud (Android) printers. 

In other words, the Mobile app will be able to access printers as provided by the underlying O.S.

Cheers,

Marco
