Description
Prints the contents of the specified window or frame using the current printing settings.
This method is part of the basic freely-distributable printing subset.
However, the acquisition of a MeadCo Publishing License means that you can customize various printing properties such as copies, duplex, paperSize, printBackground etc., target a specific printer or print externally-located documents with PrintHTML. See HTML Printing with ScriptX for more info.
Syntax
bResult = printing.Print([prompt[, frameOrWindow]])
Returns false if printing with a prompt and the user cancels the printing.
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
prompt | [Optional] (Bool) whether or not to prompt. Ignored in the Internet Zone unless a Publishing License is available. |
frameOrWindow | [Optional] (Object or String) HTML frame (within the containing page that hosts the ScriptX object) to print; either an object or the frame's (String) identifier. By default, the containing page that hosts the ScriptX object will be printed. |
Please note that for promptless printing to work in the Internet Zone a Publishing License is required. This is done to prevent anonymous Internet content invoking printing without a prompt.
