Print custom page range from Crystal Report Viewer

[HML]

We use Crystal Report Viewer 13 SP34 (32-Bit) in a .NET application.
When printing from preview the custom page range does not behave as expected:

Selected Page Range	Result
any single page value (e.g. 3)	page currently shown in preview window
single page range (e.g. 3-3)	page currently shown in preview window
comma-separated selection (e.g. 1,2)	error message "something went wrong"
combined selection (e.g. 1-2,3)	error message "something went wrong"
page range selection (e.g. 1-2)	prints range as expected

Can anyone confirm this problem and is there a solution?

You are welcome...

The P2P API is a legacy mode designed when CR for VS was installed with Visual Studio back in VS6 days.

It's normal behaviour in what is called CR Basic, same as the Embedded report designer, has limited functionality, it uses the printer saved in the Report. You can test this by opening the report in CRD and hit the Print button, select the Printer and save the report. Next time your app should default to that selected printer.

Also the Viewers default printer API is P2P, using the routines in my test app uses the PrintOutputController (POC) and allows your users to select the printer of choice.
