Introduction
The Direct To Print module for Odoo gives you full flexibility in handling PDF reports by offering three main actions: print, view (open), or download. Instead of always downloading a PDF and then printing it manually, this module lets users send the report straight to a connected printer via the browser. You can also configure default behavior per report so that users rarely need to choose an action manually. It simplifies report handling and accelerates workflows.
Key Features
Send PDF reports directly to printer from browser (without manual download)
Open report in new browser tab for viewing instead of downloading immediately
Download the PDF to local device when needed
