isPopUp : false, // Whether to pop up the setting window, true means to pop up, false means not to pop upieQuietPrint : true,// IE silent printing set true to silent, false to not silent
var printurl="http://localhost:8075/webroot/decision/view/report";
var reportlets ="[{reportlet: 'GettingStarted.cpt', Region: 'North China'}, {reportlet: 'GettingStarted.cpt',
Region: 'East China'}]";
var config = {printUrl : printurl,
isPopUp : false,
// Whether to pop up the setting window, true means pop up, false means no pop up
data :{
reportlets: reportlets // List of templates to be printed
},
printType : 0, // Print type, 0 means zero client printing, 1 means local printing
// The following are the parameters printed by the zero client, which only take effect when printType is 0
ieQuietPrint : true,// IE silent print setting: true is silent, false is not silent
};
FR.doURLPrint(config);
2. Local printing JS method
isPopUp : false, // Whether to pop up the setting window, true means pop up, false means not pop upvar printurl="http://localhost:8075/webroot/decision/view/report";
var reportlets ="[{reportlet: 'GettingStarted.cpt', Region: 'North China'}, {reportlet: 'GettingStarted.cpt',
Region: 'East China'}]";
var config = {printUrl : printurl,
isPopUp : false,
// Whether to pop up the setting window, true means pop up, false means no pop up

3. Server-side printing JS method
In FineReport 10.0, server-side printing can only be called via JS. If the parameter is passed, it will print silently.
// Silent printing
window.contentPane.printReportServer({
pageType: 2, // Print page number type: 0: all pages, 1: current page, 2: specified page
pageIndex: '1-3', // Page range. Valid when pageType is 2
printerName: "" // Specify the printer
});
