No Print When ShowPrintingDialog=True

Post by KevinK »

I'm sure I missed something simple, but when ShowPrintingDialog=True, the Windows print dialog box never appears. The ShowPrintingDialog mesage displays correctly, but nothing after that. If I set ShowPrintingDialog=False, printing works as it should.

I am simply trying to display a message to the user before they can submit their print job.

I am running PWB 2.10.5

Thanks

Kevin

The "ShowPrintingDialog=True" will display a message to the patron before printing.

Why the Windows Print dialog does not appear can be cause by a few things.

The Windows Print dialog will not sow for the Print button unless you have [Printer] ShowPrintButtonDialog=True in the INI file.

In order for the Windows Print dialog to show the Ok button on the Printing Dialog needs to be clicked.

If you are using the HTML type dialogs, make sure you include an Ok button.

If all else fails, please send a copy of your INI file as an attachment to support@teamsoftwaresolutions.com and I will take a look it.

I missed the OK/Cancel buttons in the HTML dialog. Once in, it worked like a charm.

Thanks, Scott!
