I am having an issue with a report printing to a network printer. It did work at one time now for what ever reason it doesn’t. I can save the report as a PDF then print but cann’t print directly from the report viewer.

I don’t know if you have already done this, but make a button on the window to print the report. Code will look like this:

```auto
report = event.source.parent.getComponent('Report Viewer')
report.print()
```
