setting up printers, see your Windows documentation.
To select a printer
1. In any FactoryTalk View editor, from the File menu, choose Print Setup.
2. If you do not want to use the default printer, specify another printer.
3. Choose the appropriate orientation and paper options.
Printing at run time
To print graphic displays at run time, use the PrintDisplay command.
To let an operator print specific displays, provide a way to run the command for these
displays. For example, create a button object, display key, or client key using PrintDisplay
as the press action.
When you use the PrintDisplay command, FactoryTalk View prints the entire display,
even if parts are covered by other displays. If you want to print an image of whatever
shows on the monitor, use the ScreenPrint command.
For more information about the PrintDisplay command, see the FactoryTalk View Site
Edition Help.
Print Setup settings apply to the development computer only. If the application will run on a
different computer, you must also set up a printer on that computer.
