Print a PDF to a printer on Server/Desktop

To print a PDF to a default printer, basics.

C#

PDFDoc pdfdoc = new PDFDoc(filename);

// Setup PrinterMode options
PrinterMode printerMode = new PrinterMode();
printerMode.SetCollation(true);
printerMode.SetCopyCount(1);
printerMode.SetDPI(600); // regardless of ordering, an explicit DPI setting overrides the OutputQuality setting
printerMode.SetDuplexing(PrinterMode.DuplexMode.e_Duplex_Auto);

// Print the document on the default printer, name the print job the name of the
// file, print to the printer not a file, and use printer options:
Print.StartPrintJob(pdfdoc, "", pdfdoc.GetFileName(), "", null, printerMode, null);

C++

PDFDoc doc(filename);

// Setup PrinterMode options
PrinterMode printerMode;
printerMode.SetCollation(true);
printerMode.SetCopyCount(1);
printerMode.SetDPI(600); // regardless of ordering, an explicit DPI setting overrides the OutputQuality setting
printerMode.SetDuplexing(PrinterMode::e_Duplex_Auto);

// Print the document on the default printer, name the print job the name of the
// file, print to the printer not a file, and use printer options:
Print::StartPrintJob(doc, UString(""), doc.GetFileName(), UString(""), NULL, &printerMode, NULL );

Go

doc := NewPDFDoc(filename)

// Set our PrinterMode options
printerMode := NewPrinterMode()
printerMode.SetCollation(true)
printerMode.SetCopyCount(1)
printerMode.SetDPI(100); // regardless of ordering, an explicit DPI setting overrides the OutputQuality setting
printerMode.SetDuplexing(PrinterModeE_Duplex_Auto)

// Print the PDF document to the default printer, using "tiger.pdf" as the document
// name, send the file to the printer not to an output file, print all pages, set the printerMode
// and a cancel flag to true
pageSet := NewPageSet(1, doc.GetPageCount())
boolValue := true
PrintStartPrintJob(doc, "", doc.GetFileName(), "", pageSet, printerMode, &boolValue)

Java

PDFDoc doc = new PDFDoc(filename);

// Setup PrinterMode options
PrinterMode printerMode = new PrinterMode();
printerMode.setCollation(true);
printerMode.setCopyCount(1);
printerMode.setDPI(600); // regardless of ordering, an explicit DPI setting overrides the OutputQuality setting
printerMode.setDuplexing(PrinterMode.e_Duplex_Auto);

// Print the document on the default printer, name the print job the name of the
// file, print to the printer not a file, and use printer options:
Print.startPrintJob(doc, "", doc.getFileName(), "", null, printerMode, null);

Obj-C

Swift

    let print = PTPrint()
    print.prepareDoc(toPrint: self.pdfDoc, delegate: MyPrintDelegate(self.view), userData: sender)

        myPrint.printDoc(docFilePath, from: .zero, in: self.view, withJobName: docFilePath, animated: true, completionHandler: nil)
    }
    
}

PHP

$doc = new PDFDoc($filename);

// Setup PrinterMode options
$printerMode = new PrinterMode();
$printerMode->SetCollation(true);
$printerMode->SetCopyCount(1);
$printerMode->SetDPI(600); // regardless of ordering, an explicit DPI setting overrides the OutputQuality setting
$printerMode->SetDuplexing(PrinterMode::e_Duplex_Auto);

// Print the document on the default printer, name the print job the name of the
// file, print to the printer not a file, and use printer options:
PDFPrint::StartPrintJob($doc, "", $doc->GetFileName(), "", null, $printerMode, null);

Python

doc = PDFDoc(filename)

# Setup PrinterMode options
printerMode = PrinterMode()
printerMode.SetCollation(True)
printerMode.SetCopyCount(1)
printerMode.SetDPI(600); # regardless of ordering, an explicit DPI setting overrides the OutputQuality setting

# Print the document on the default printer, name the print job the name of the

Print.StartPrintJob(doc, "", doc.GetFileName(), "", None, printerMode, None)

Ruby

doc = PDFDoc.new(filename)

# Setup PrinterMode options
printerMode = PrinterMode.new
printerMode.SetCollation(true)
printerMode.SetCopyCount(1)
printerMode.SetDPI(100)		# regardless of ordering, an explicit DPI setting overrides the OutputQuality setting
printerMode.SetDuplexing(PrinterMode::E_Duplex_Auto)

# Print the document on the default printer, name the print job the name of the
# file, print to the printer not a file, and use printer options:
Print.StartPrintJob(doc, "", doc.GetFileName(), "", nil, printerMode, nil)

VB

Dim doc As PDFDoc = New PDFDoc(filename)

' Setup printing options:
Dim printerMode As PrinterMode = New PrinterMode
printerMode.SetCollation(True)
printerMode.SetCopyCount(1)
printerMode.SetDPI(600)     ' regardless of ordering, an explicit DPI setting overrides the OutputQuality setting
printerMode.SetDuplexing(printerMode.DuplexMode.e_Duplex_Auto)

' Print the document on the default printer, name the print job the name of the 
' file, print to the printer not a file, and use default printer options:
Print.StartPrintJob(doc, "", doc.GetFileName(), "", Nothing, printerMode, Nothing)
