How to: Do not collect printer name

Description

Skip collecting printer name

Use case

If you can determine the printer based on label template name, context, user name, etc. then you may skip collecting printer-step 

Modify the printer step

We hide the step and set a default value.

This way, the value is set, but the user will not be prompted.

    // [Example] Change an existing step : Add item description to existing InfoStep helpLabel)
    [EventSubscriber(ObjectType::Codeunit, Codeunit::"MOB Print", 'OnLookupOnPrintLabel_OnAfterAddStepForTemplate', '', true, true)]
    procedure MyOnLookupOnPrintLabel_OnAfterAddStepForTemplate(_TemplateName: Text[50]; _SourceRecRef: RecordRef; var _Step: Record "MOB Steps Element"; var _Dataset: Record "MOB Common Element")
    var
        MobPrinter: Record "MOB Printer";
    begin

        // Making sure we only handle relevant label templates
        if not _TemplateName.Contains('3x2') then  
            exit;

        // Find the printer to use
        MobPrinter.FindFirst();  

        // Set defaultValue and hide printer-step
        if _Step.Get_name() = 'Printer' then begin
            _Step.Set_defaultValue(MobPrinter.Name);    
            _Step.Set_visible(false);
        end;
    end;
