Printing Dashboard Results

Nothing ever done special by me to get Print and Print preview working in dashboards.

Occasionally I see some odd behavior if a printer isn't installed on a Windows system?

Otherwise some functions aren't available for runtime dashboards.
For those you just have to deploy the dashboard as an "assembly".

It has been a while and I just want to confirm his.  We have several dashboard we wrote but I noticed that the print button and print preview are disabled.  I am thinking this is by design because dashboard are meant for real time viewing and then copied into excel.  Can someone let me know if I am correct?  If not how can you get the print button to work. I know it is not a printing issue in Epicor.  I can print other items.

What version are you running?
As far as I know, Print and Print Preview icons are active in E9 custom dashboards

We are running Epicor 9.05.702A.  Do you have to do anything special when creating dashboard to allow printing.  None of mine work.
 
Thanks

Other things print and preview OK?  Like Word, Excel, etc…   I’ve seen print functions in other applications become unavailable if the spool service is off or there is no default printer set so it does not know how to render a preview.    Another issue is if your default printer is off-line or not an appropriate printer (like maybe a label printer).  Preview and print assume the default printer so might not let you get to where you cn select another.
