Try like this:

 

Map parameters = new HashMap();

parameters.put("Datum",new java.util.Date());

parameters.put("ReportTitle","");

 

String home = new String(System.getProperty("user.home"));

String jasperFile = "pckJasper/plata/IsplatnaLista.jasper";

String jasperPrint=home.concat("/IsplatnaLista.jrprint");

 

JasperReport jasper = JasperManager.loadReport(jasperFile);

JasperManager.fillReportToFile(jasper,jasperPrint,parameters,conn);

JasperManager.printReport(jasperPrint,false);

 

But this show directly to printer, without preview.

I need this functionality also.

 

It seems that your solution prints it to the default printer.

I have several printers which I have to use in a server

program. Is there a solution for this ?

 

Maybe there should be an API to change the PrinterJob ?

Hi,

 

There is the JRPrintServiceExporter which uses

the Java Print Service API that comes with JDK1.4

ant lets look lookup network printers.

Check the "printservice" sample provided.

 

If this does not suit your needs, there is the

JRGraphics2DExporter that can help you create

your own exporter or utility class, to send output

to any printer you might want to. For this, you

can check the source code of the JRPrinterAWT class.

 

I hope this helps.

Teodor
