SAP Crystal Reports Print Control 14.0

SAP Crystal Reports Print Control is a legacy browser add‑on (ActiveX) that enables direct, client‑side printing of Crystal Reports from web applications using the Crystal Reports Viewer. It preserves report layout and pagination, and lets users choose printer settings such as paper size and orientation to match the designed output. The control is typically installed on demand when printing from Internet Explorer–based SAP BusinessObjects or Crystal Reports Server environments and generally requires Windows and permission to install ActiveX components. As modern browsers have retired ActiveX support, this component is considered legacy; recommended alternatives include exporting reports to PDF for printing or using updated viewers that support current browsers.

Key points:

• Direct printing of Crystal Reports from web apps
• Accurate pagination and formatting aligned to the report design
• Integrates with the Internet Explorer ActiveX viewer
• Can be auto‑installed per user or deployed by IT
• Not compatible with modern, non‑ActiveX browsers; consider PDF export or newer viewer options
