The Printer_SetDestination() function changes the default printer for the current application to the one specified in the printer_settings parameter.
Printer_SetDestination(printer_settings)
• printer_settings – A text field containing the printer-related options selected by the user when the named printer was defined.
A boolean value indicating whether the current printer was changed. True indicates the current printer was changed. False indicates it wasn’t.
This function can be useful if you are creating a custom application for which the reports must always be printed to a specific printer.

Use this function with caution. It changes the default printer setting for the current application, not just the current report. |
Instead of using this function to change the application’s default printer destination, we suggest you specify named printers only on a report-by-report basis. This can be done using the printer clause of the run report or run report with name statement.
