I am on SF 2017.1 and would like to add a printer to my project to be able to select a specific network printer for a report (see attached screenshot).
I chose this approach to be able to influence the printer settings for a report (e.g. orientation, collate etc.).
Any help is appreciated!

Hi Dennis,

Duh... I know this obviously!
When I do this, I get a list of printers that are probably somehow/sometime added by my predecessor(s).
My question is how to add a network printer to this list. I cannot find anything about this in your documentation.

Hi Casper,
I'll remember this for the next time I need it.
I am now using an external function for the print job. One of the parameters is the printer location. See attachment.
In the heat of the moment one cannot wait days for answers to some basic questions. I searched the documentation first and couldn't find anything about the printers and then before my initial post I contacted your support by phone and they asked me to create a post. And when I did, I got told to click on the magnifying glass...
Anyway, I am glad to have this information now. Thanks for your answer!
Regards,
Dennis.
