2016 report printing issue

bjacobson
I've been using the same vb.net application to print (PDF and hard copy) from PCDMIS 2011 for a few years now. In 2016 it no longer works the same. After printing once, it will not print a second time. PCDMIS doesn't even flinch when the second set of commands are called. If I print the PDF first, it skips the hard copy, if I print the hard copy first, it skips the PDF...no matter what, it will not print twice in a row, like it used to. We have upgraded 7 machines to 2016, all have the same problem.

Any thoughts??

  • why don't you print & pdf at the same time?

    SetPrintOptionsEx's first paramter is where to output. I don't know VB method of or'ing 2 variables together (c++ would be PCDLRN.PCDPRINTLOC.PCD_FILE | PCDPRINTLOC.PCD_PRINTER) 

     prt.EditWindow.SetPrintOptionsEx(PCDLRN.PCDPRINTLOC.PCD_FILE, PCDLRN.ENUM_PCD_ON_OFF.DMIS_ON, PCDLRN.PCDPRINTFILEMODE.PCD_NEWFILE, 1, sPath, PCDLRN.PCDFILEPRINTFORMAT.PCD_PDF, False)  
 RepWin.PrintReport()



    vs. ( again not sure about combining the values) Maybe just adding them together? 

     prt.EditWindow.SetPrintOptionsEx(PCDLRN.PCDPRINTLOC.PCD_FILE | PCDPRINTLOC.PCD_PRINTER  
 , PCDLRN.ENUM_PCD_ON_OFF.DMIS_ON, PCDLRN.PCDPRINTFILEMODE.PCD_NEWFILE, 1, sPath, PCDLRN.PCDFILEPRINTFORMAT.PCD_PDF, False)  
 RepWin.PrintReport()


    the 2nd method will generate the output for both file & printer.

    I didn't know you could combine them! I simply used "Or" in place of the pipe, and it works perfectly. Thanks for that!!
