Kindly check for some solution. Hellojaved88, First for printing from any SIMATIC Panel, you have to check that the printer is compatible with your Panel. Please check from excel sheet attached in the following FAQ: Printers for SIMATIC HMI Panels. Then you have to install the printer driver on the Panel. Drivers link are available in the excel sheet mentioned in previous point. Printing with SIMATIC Comfort Panels. Hope this helps.
