How to print pdf file to printer whose name contains "labelprinter" in Windows 10 from desktop application ?
I tried code below in Visual Foxpro but it prints to windows default printer. Can some bat file used to set pritner by name.
* cPDFFile - name of PDF file to print
nprinter = aprinters(aprinterid)
for i=1 to nPrinters
if 'labelprinter'$lowe( aprinterid[i,1] )
DECLARE INTEGER ShellExecute IN shell32.dll ;
INTEGER hndWin, ;
STRING cAction, ;
STRING cFileName, ;
STRING cParams, ;
STRING cDir, ;
INTEGER nShowWin
set printer to name (aprinterid[i,1])
ShellExecute(0, "print", cPDFFile , "", "", 1)
exit
endif
endfor
You can use the "printto" verb to specify a printer name:
ShellExecute(0, "printto", cPDFFile , "printername", "", 1)
