Step 4: Start printing
Overview
To start the print job, simply use iEndPrinting.
Printing via infrared
WINDEVWEBDEV - Server codeWindows If the computer and the associated printer are equipped with an infrared port, the print job is performed when iEndPrinting is called.
Reminder: The printer used has been previously selected using iDestination, iParameter or iConfigure.
Printing via a PCL file
WINDEVWEBDEV - Server codeWindows WINDEV and WEBDEV also let you print using a PCL file (Printer Control Language).
To perform this type of print:
  1. Specify the PCL file to create (iDestination).
    For example: 
    iDestination(iPCL, "C:\MesDocuments\MonFichier.PCL")
  2. Copy the PCL file from the PC to the printer that will be used.
    For example:
    • using the fCopyFile function.
    • by entering a command line (in the Windows "Run" dialog box).
      Copy "<FichierPCL>" "<ImprimanteUtilisée>"
Note: From the printer configuration window (function iConfigure or iParameter), the user can also create a PCL file.
