How to send report directly to the printer?

Eslam_ElbyalyMay 24 2020 — edited May 28 2020

I am using Apex 18.2. and ORDS as a printing server. I have a master-detail page for selling items with a form on a table as the master region and an IG as the detail, joined to each other through assigning the PK to the FK IG's column. There is another page with a report that can be queried through number of page items to get the documents with items sold in the previously mentioned master-detail page. Whenever a user creates a document and submit the page, I will need to send the data of that document directly to the printer. I mentioned the report page because I thought redirecting to it and assigning the PK to the corresponding page item could be a suggestion. But I know that I can create a shared component> report query too. But I do not know how could I send the data directly to the printer in either way. I do not know if the report type - IR, CR or IG would make a difference. That's why I just referred to "report". But I'd need to know how it could be done with all types of reports.
