Do you mean the PDF viewer, the Report Viewer, or some other component?

Also, don't @ tag people explicitly, especially folks who aren't IA employees. Just post, and see if anyone helps you.

</div>

This is my script :  
job = system.print.createPrintJob(event.source.parent.getComponent("P2L"))  
job.setShowPrintDialog(0)  
job.setPageHeight(15)  
job.setPageWidth(10)  
job.setMargins(.0)  
job.setOrientation(1)  
job.print()

#Its a report viewer component "P2L"  
#When i run this script, i get only the first page of report viewer printed i do have 7 pages and want to print all pages.

_system.print.createPrintJob()_ makes a print job of the Report Viewer component, not the report itself.

The Report Viewer has a built-in [print method](https://www.docs.inductiveautomation.com/docs/8.1/appendix/components/vision-components/reporting-components/report-viewer/report-viewer-scripting#printprintername-showdialog).

Example: assuming you're printing to the default printer, and no dialog:

```python
job = event.source.parent.getComponent("P2L")
job.print(None, False)

```

Does right-clicking on the report viewer and selecting 'Print' give the desired output?
