CrystalReportViewer selects wrong printer using PrintOuputController dialog

[allan11]

My client has 2 EPSON LQ-310 printers named A and B installed on computer and reports are set to print on either printer which decided at runtime. Everything works fine if application directly print to printers using RAS API. However, when client first preview the report using CrystalReportViewer control and click print button, the printer select dialog will not set to desired printer A and always selects printer B.

I am using CRforVS SP32 SDK. Print mode of CrystalReportViewer control is set to PrintOutputController and saved printer in report is set to printer A. Report generation is followed to sample app RAS2010_printing.

I had looked through many Q&A and can't solve the problem. Please help.

I'm not see it... Report using that printer saved in the RPT file

Then Selected B and set Printer button and saved the report

As you can see the Saved Printer name was updated.

Reminder also, using the Viewers Print button WILL ALWAYS use the Default printer or the printer saved in the RPT file when designed. Even if you select a different printer.
