Hi,

I couldn't find the right way to delete NPrinting project file.

Hi Dafnis,

This may help for you.

NPrinting has several configuration settings to customize and make functional some program features that are not active by default. This tutorial will explain the purpose of many parameters and provide links to other tutorials that provide detailed instructions.

Configuration settings for NPrinting Service are found in the NPrinting Management Console. Some settings, like SMTP parameters, are common between NPrinting Client and Server and they can be configured once if both NPrinting Client and Server are installed on the same computer.

 
   

Access Options Dialog Window

  1. Open NPrinting and select the File tab.
  2. Click on Options.

Default setting is Silver- Language: select the interface language you prefer from among those available. Default setting is English- Enable advanced error management: if this box is checked and NPrinting generates an error message or crashes, it automatically creates a .zip file containing a screenshot and other information, and opens your e-mail agent with the file attached to a message ready to inspect and send to the NPrinting Support Team for analysis. Default: Inactive- Open as a viewer: this permits NPrinting to be only used for previewing reports. Default: Inactive- Make options settings common to all users: NPrinting will use the same option settings for all users of the NPrinting installation. Necessary for using NPrinting Service. Default: Inactive

  • Def. temp. QlikView export formatted: note the default folder before changing this setting so that you can transfer its contents to the new folder. It contains a default QlikView template installed with NPrinting.

You can also include the recipient's e-mail in the message body by checking the option.All task output will be produced as subfolder of the Output path. The Task's output folder will be combined with the "Output path" to reproduce the task output folder structure. For example, if your test "Output path" is "C:\Test" and your task's output path is "D:\Output\Task", the final path become "C:\Test\D\Output\Task". The drive letter becomes a subfolder.         

Resources
