Usr_PrintPage

SUMMARY

Usr_PrintPage - Print pagewise

SYNTAX

Usr_PrintPage (<DisplayId>,<PrintQueue>,<PageNo>)

ARGUMENTS

DisplayId

Print Layout to use

PrintQueue

Printer to be printed to

PageNo

0 = print all
n = is taken as page number

DESCRIPTION

A page wise print, using the defined printer and print layout, is started.
If no parameter for “PageNo” is defined the system will ask for an input when the job is called in runtime.

HINTS !

• To be able to print a Systemobject “_PRINT” must exist !

Systemobject "_PRINT" 
           Text:   Name of the Printqueue - dyn. from System 
           Value1: Max. number of print orders possible.
                         (No Entry = default = 10)
           Value2: Act. number of print orders - dyn. from System
           Text1:  Act. Error message - dyn. from System

• The printout is done page wise – one page is taken as one print order.
  If the value defined by “Value1” is reached any further print orders are ignored.
  If “value 1” is rather high, it might lead to problems on a heavy workload of the system.
  
  
• In the layout of a page background colour, header, number of lines, etc. are defined.
  
  - if, for example, the print layout got 66 lines but the monitor just 28, the page numbers on the monitor and the printout will definitely differ ! !

EXAMPLES

Usr_PrintPage (ALARMS,Laser_1,13)

Page 13 is printed on "Laser_1" using the Layout "ALARMS".
