<p>This module allows users to send reports to a printer attached to the server.</p>
<p>It adds an optional behaviour on reports to send it directly to a printer.</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><cite>Send to Client</cite> is the default behaviour providing you a downloadable PDF</li>
<li><cite>Send to Printer</cite> prints the report on selected printer</li>
</ul>
<p>It detects trays on printers installation plus permits to select the
paper source on which you want to print directly.</p>
<p>Report behaviour is defined by settings.</p>
<p>You will find this option on default user config, on default report
config and on specific config per user per report.</p>
<p>This allows you to dedicate a specific paper source for example for
preprinted paper such as payment slip.</p>
<p>Settings can be configured:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>globally</li>
<li>per user</li>
<li>per report</li>
<li>per user and report</li>
</ul>
