Hi, any options for printing double-sided and single-sided? We need to edit the printer properties. How can I do that?

The Set Default Printer and Print File work like a charm, but the Print PDF activity is only opening the document, not printing. 

I'm on Windows 10, using Adobe Acrobat Reader DC Version 2020.006.20034

Thank you for the swift reply. Indeed, the document doesn't appear in the queue. Which Adobe version did you test it with?

Even after changing the settings of Adobe Acrobat, when I run UiPath, it reverts to color printing and cannot perform monochrome printing.

Hi I am trying to use Print PDF activity. Its not working for me. when I tried to retrieve the default printer and list of printers, I am able to get the informartion of printers. But Print PDF is not working for me.

I have used the package for printing the pdf  it completely freezes the system incuding UIpath studio. 

- Is it possible to extend the feature for Foxit PhantomPDF.

Do you happened to know whether this can print into Mobile Printer? Or is it just a matter connecting the Mobile Printer into PC and the Mobile Printer will showed up in the printer lists?

Pawel, Printer Activities for UiPath Author

Great to look on the updated one. But i have used the Printer. Activity 0.6 in my flow. But now the package are not available in the manager packages tab. 

I have tried the instruction you have given to Rahul Sinha, Still i am not unable to find it. I went to the mentioned link "https://feed.uipath.com/packages/Printer.Activities/" and try to downlaod the package manual, but the webpage showing the error as "No webpage was found for the web address:".

Suggest me here whether i need to swith the flow with new activity.

If I am printing PDF, I would like to save it at my chosen path and a given name, is there a funciton in this activity?

Can we select the Tray before printing the document using Uipath print activities.

I've got a problem, "Get Printerlist" shows me not the same output in Orchestrator and in the studio.

So the name's are differently. Unfortunately this leads to a fault. 

Default printer in Orchestrator: print2me on SWIT01PVPRN01.eriksone.com (redirected 2)

Defaultprinter in Studio:\\SWIT01PVPRN01.eriksone.com\Print2Me

Have you ever seen and solved this problem?

When I use the print to PDF activity the document will be printed as expected but the activity will also give me an error "Print PDF: Process has exited, so the requested information is not available" and will not continue execution. What can be the cause of this error message and how can I overcome this problem?

I use Adobe versie 2021.001.20145 and studio pro version 2021.4.0.

what happens if an unavailable printer name is given as input to set default printer, will it throw any error?

Tried using this for printing PDFs and worked great.

Is there any planned updates for printing .eml files?

I have installed the last version from Package Manage UiPath Studio (1.0) and when I try to print Excel file, it's printed but the activity doesn't finish and therefore not avance to the next, I have changed the spooling time until 15000 ms but the result is the same.

Great work, congrats! Any chance to also add PagesPerSheet parameter as input for the Print File activity? And if I set it manually in the printer configuration, will the package respect that?

Duplex settings are not working for me - can you please check that?

Also not working with Windows Server 2019.

I have an issue whit a big pdf. How do I set up a delay between opening file and printing the file? Open and printing the file is too fast and the PFD doc doesn't have time to load fully.

Simple to use - I've used it and it works 'as advertised'! Very simple and to the point, looking forward to more functionalities regarding printers! This can become the go-to custom activity for working with printing!

Activity clears all jobs from the queue assigned to the printer, if printer name not provided, activity will be performed for the default printer.

Activity gets data from the queue assigned to a specific printer, if the printer is not specified, the default one is used. Data is returned as <DataTable>.

This activity returns the name of the default system printer as a string. So for output, you have to use <string> variable/

This activity returns a list of <string>s with names of all system printers (also not-real ones like print to pdf or print to OneNote). For output you have to use a list of strings (System.Collections.Generic.List<System.String>):

Stops provided printer name (or for the default system printer if name not provided). It doesn’t stop jobs in the queue, it stops the whole printer as hardware.

It has the same effect if the user opens the queue for the printer, choose menu Printer -> Pause Printing

This activity gives your Robot the ability to print any file for which you have assigned in the system default application which can print this file. 

Printing bases on default applications for extension. So, i.e: you will not be able to print *.doc file without MS Word application installed. NOTE: Each application will be opened for a few seconds, but will be also closed automatically!

1.	.pdf (Adobe Acrobat Reader DC 2020.013.20064.12623 & Foxit PhantomPDF Business 10.1.0.37527),

2.	.doc, .docx, .xls, .xlsx, .ppt, .pptx (Microsoft Office 2010 & Microsoft Office 2016),

Takes as input printer name (which can be obtained using List Printers activity) or uses the default system printer.

As an output, it returns a dictionary of (string, Boolean). String is a status name and Boolean is false or true for a specific status. Your printer has to report specific status i.e. printer door is open to the system, otherwise, it will not be returned by this activity.

If the printer has the status ‘Paused’, it resumes print to work.

This activity can be used to change/set the default system printer. You should use printer name (which can be obtained using the “List Printers” activity. Name – Input – should be provided as <string>.

This set of activities gives your Robot the ability to print documents, command the printer and obtain printer queue details.

You can easily print documents or command your printer without writing a single line of code or handling printer window.  You can also get the number of pending jobs in the queue and details of jobs or command your printer.

This activity returns the name of the default system printer as a string. So for output, you have to use <string> variable.

Print File activity updated - responding to users feedback: monitoring queue is optional and default switch off, as it doesn't give expected results for some users configurations.
