I need to create a “Print” button to print a report from my project. Any help about how can I do it?

Make the script action on your button call [system.report.executeAndDistribute](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC79/system.report.executeAndDistribute). If you need a refresher on how to make a button call a script, check out the Inductive University videos
