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.

Hi Allan,

I'm not seeing the problem, I can select either from the Viewer or set it in code.

I believe this is a platform issue or possibly permissions, I can't duplicate it so it has to be something on your PC causing the problem.

The Viewer will select whatever printer is saved in the Report.
