I have Power Automate Desktop flow, which downloads a PDF file from a website, then it should print it on my standard windows printer. Instead, it opens Adobe Acrobat Pro.
I do not receive any errors.
What am I doing wrong?
Hi @Mark_Stewart,
Can you share a couple of screenshots of your Power Automate Desktop flow. Which actions are you using?
@Mark_Stewart There are three print functions in PAD: Print document, Get default printer, Set default printer
Have you tried using "Set default printer" to your destination printer and then trying to print using "Print document" ?
Yes I have, did not help
This is just a simple test of the same I do in the larger flow. It runs with no errors, but also with no print.
I am really sorry, I found out what I was doing wrong. This is one of the problems with working from home and not having a printer.I was printing to our office network printer, thinking I would be able to see the print in the queue of the printer. I never saw it, but my problem was I first open the queue after I run the flow, not while it was running.Now I tried it again with the queue open and everything is working fine.Sorry for any inconvenience, and thank you for the replies!
I have same problem, this program works in .docx file,but don't with pdf file, what should i do ?
