I have a report that I need to broadcast , so from reporter file/send to
I select broadcast agent option then there I select refreash as well as print option then I select the time & say ok , after that I go to tools/console option to monitor progress I see file processing & after
few minutes file successfull option but file is not printing on the printer
so I tried to send it to user instead of printer & followed the steps
mentioned earlier & it worked & I received the file , I think the steps I
am taking are correct so there is some issue with printer which I am
not able to comprehend , actually I am selecting default printer option
& that printer works because i can print my word & exel files so can
any one give me an idea to debug
Some words about yours problem on BCA
If you whish to use the “print action” with BCA, you have some elements to know :
First, you select the printer of your choice from the client computer where you have send the rep to the BCA but if you see and select some printers from this client computer, it’s not evident that this printers are seen by the BCA server. So, each printer you use in the BCA “print action” must be installed first on the BCA server.
Second, what is you BCA release ? NT or Unix ? In the second case, the printer queue name must respect some elements
use lower caps only
no special chars like “_”
less than 9 chars
if you don’t respect this, you will have a “printer name is not valid” error message in the BCA console…
