It would be nice to have the ability to print to a network printer from the server, as opposed to the default printer of the server. Current scripting does not allow for this.

What are you trying to print? The report viewer will let you specify the name of a printer to print to, which could be a network printer…

Carl,

Is there a way to pass the printer name/location with code?

Again, what are you trying to print? There is more than 1 way to print something in Ignition, so I need to know what you’re talking about more specifically.
