printRecord(recordId, layoutName)
from Ninox Manual > Calculations > Reference of Functions and Language

Thank you, I had already read it but today I have clarified. At the end the function that gives like this:
printRecord ('_ id', "layoutName")
In this way, print the record in which you are.

I am also try to add a button to print the current record I am on.
What does "layoutName" refer to?
-
I think you can also use printRecord(this,"layoutName")
"layoutName" refers to the layout TAB in the print layout editor where you can add several layouts puching the + button next to the Tabs.

Using this instead of _id worked.
Do you know of any way to have it print to the default printer instead of a PDF?
-
I don’t think that is possible, always create a pdf to print because with ipad or iphone we have no printer drivers.
Anyone on this forum another solution for this?
-
Is it possible to limit print to PDF for just ipad or iphone. Let desktop print to printer?
Iphone and Ipad can use generic print drivers to network printer when one is on the network.

You may limit it with if - then condition and the function
ninoxApp()- returns one of "mac" | "ipad" | "iphone" | "web", identifying the type of app
