Print a report to the printer configured in the report-file?

Hi everybody,

in Crystal Reports you can configure a printer in the report-file.

In my thick java client, I can open a report and print it to some printer. But I failed, when trying to print it to the printer, which is contained in the report file.

I tried to retrieve the printer configuration of the report with:

PrintOptions printOptions = reportClientDocument.getPrintOutputController ().getPrintOptions();

and to print the report using

reportClientDocument.getPrintOutputController ().printReport (printOptions);

but that failed ...

(printOptions.getPrinterName() returns e.g. "")

reportClientDocument.getPrintOutputController ().printReport (null) didn't work either ...

Is there a possibility to retrieve the (existing) printer settings in a report file using CR4E?
