Print View

All  are printable. By selecting a form's printable checkbox a print  icon will be displayed at the top of your form. When the form is used and the printer icon is clicked the form is rendered in a new browser tab and a pdf document is generated and downloaded depending on your browser settings. The name of the pdf file will be <form name>.pdf. The form pdf file can then be printed. 

The Printable property is checked by default. If you un-check this property then the control will not appear in the printed view. This property can also be set dynamically via a business rule by setting <control>.printable = [true|false]. 

Note

If you are trying to make the print view of a table control in your form consistent with the browser view, set the column widths explicitly at either the column cell level or at the table level. 

The Print icon works differently for forms in a workflow. You will have to add a message control on the flow step where you wish to see the print button. See below for the details.
