PrintixConnect - Setup
Setup
PrintixConnect requires a one-time configuration to establish a secure connection between Business Central and the Printix cloud service.
-
Open the PrintixConnect Setup page
Here you enter the authentication information needed to authorize Business Central with Printix:-
Tenant ID
-
Client ID
-
Client Secret
This information is obtained from your Printix tenant and created through your Printix admin portal.
-
-
Test the connection
After entering the credentials, you can validate that the integration is working correctly.
Printers
From the Printers page, you can:
-
Retrieve printers already created in your Printix environment
-
Refresh the printer list
-
Perform a test print to ensure communication between Business Central and Printix is functioning as expected
Printers retrieved from Printix can be mapped directly for Business Central printing.
Using PrintixConnect
PrintixConnect works through Business Central’s built-in system printing functions.
After setup, developers or advanced users can send print jobs programmatically from their own code by using the standard Report.Print() or Report.RunRequestPage() patterns, routed automatically through Printix.
The module does not change printing behavior for standard reports unless configured to do so; it simply provides a cloud-ready print path via Printix.
Troubleshooting
Common issues can typically be resolved by:
-
Verifying that the OAuth credentials are correct
-
Refreshing the printer list from the Printers page
-
Testing the connection and test-printing a small document
-
Ensuring the Printix tenant allows API access
If problems persist, your Printix tenant logs can provide additional details about rejected or blocked print operations.
