printing an image

[MarcelJ]

Hi,

I've tried several ways to print an Image (either IMAQ or LV picture) but so far I'm not satisfied with the results.

I'm looking for a simple way to print an image directly to a printer. There are no borders allowed, no page numbers etc. Just the picture !

The best result I achieved so far is by using the print at completion feature of the VI, but somehow this uses the default printer settings stored in the VI. This is quite useless unless I program a dozen VI's that comply to all different settings of my printer I guess.

Is there a better way to perform a simple task like this ?

regards,
Marcel

I already found a way to do it.
The page orientation and margins are available through the VI properties.

Unfortunately the VI properties present only part of the printer settings.
It seems that paper size and other properties can not be changed.

I guess I'm missing something since locking printer settings in a VI is totally wrong. This would make VI's lock to one specific system.

What am I missing ?

Regards,
Marcel
