Hi @ranidas 

This is very much possible as I have done it myself. Quick question is the Nprinting up and Running already ? By that I mean have you started sending reports already? You just want to find out how to distribute to a folder?

Hi 

First of all your NPrinitng version (the one you indicated you are using  NPrinitng 17.0 ) is very old and should be upgraded. Latest version is November 2020.

Distribution reports to folder (and all other steps and requirements) are well described in official documentation on https://help.qlik.com

for example here:

by the way - I guess I dont have to say that NPrinting service account needs to have permissions set and access to read/write/overwrite in this folder....

hope this helps

Hi,

I strongly suggest to start by studying the official help site of Qlik NPrinting because it is an enterprise class software and you cannot just sit down in front of the Web Console and start to use, you need training. 

Recent versions support the import of Qlik Sense sheets as images or you can drag and drop the objects into your templates. Every detail of the template creation process is documented.

When you create a new community conversation, please add the label with the correct version you are using because the solution could depend on that information. 

Best Regards,

Ruggero
