How to check the printer status before sending a pdf to the printer
Previous article: link
We added a new Pascal Script function in version v2024.3.17.0
Function psGetUrlContent(Const aUrl, aParams: String; var aError: String): String;
Please check the previous article, we only changed the following part:
- First Destination: Pascal Script
- Please add the following script: link
- We added the following Const values which you’ll need to adjust:
- ctCheckPrinterConnection: This will add the possibility to check the printer using the URL of the printer (web page). A lot of network printers have an internal web server that we’ll be using to check if the printer is online.
- Set this value to ‘TRUE’ if you want to use this option, otherwise set this Const to ‘FALSE’.
- cpPrinterUrl: If ‘ctCheckPrinterConnection := True;’ then add the Url (web interface) of the Printer we need to check.

We added this update because the customer had a printer where, by default, only its web interface was enabled. In the previous article we used a telnet connection which seems to be disabled with some printer due to security reasons.
If you need any help with this ‘check the printer status’ request, please let us know.
