Here is documentation for printing from Epicor on printing.
The catch is... to go directly to a printer, you need to have an active Vantage session open on the PC that scheduled it and that printer has to be available to that PC. We set up a virtual PC that remains logged on all the time, and schedule reports from there, usually going to APM to be e-mailed out.
We have several reports that run at night but select the 'generate only' icon, and keep them for a week (so they will still be available on Monday if ran on Friday) The next day the user can come in and select that report from the system monitor and print preview them and print them, review them, or export them to spreadsheets, whatever the user wants to do with them.

RESOLUTON: A report is scheduled from the Vantage window that you print the report from. First, you must have the Schedule setup. Schedules are setup in the SystemTaskAgent, under System Management->Utilities->SystemAgent. Help from this area gives the specific details on creating a Schedule.
From the Print window, do the following:
1. Choose your Report Style.
2. Choose your Schedule. (This must be setup in the SystemTaskAgent.) 3. Check Recurring if you want the report to reoccur on this Schedule. Leave Recurring unchecked if you want the report to occur once.
4. Choose your Archive Period.
5. Click Print to print the report on your Schedule.
A. You will have to choose your printer at this time.
B. This printer must be a valid printer for this client PC.
C. You will have to remain logged into Vantage for the Schedule to print successfully.
D. If you are logged out when the Schedule is supposed to run, it may run the next time you login to Vantage. This will depend on if the Archive Period has passed and what type of Schedule is setup.
6. Click Print Preview to print preview the report on your Schedule.
A. You will have to remain logged into Vantage for the Schedule to print preview successfully.
B. If you are logged out when the Schedule is supposed to run, it may run the next time you login to Vantage. This will depend on if the Archive Period has passed and what type of Schedule is setup.
