In this section you will learn how to get information about detected printers:
For function reference and examples we assume, that we imported systeminformation as follows:
const si = require('systeminformation');Detected Printers
All functions in this section return a promise or can be called with a callback function (parameter cb in the function reference)
| Function | Result object | Linux | BSD | Mac | Win | Sun | Comments |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| si.printer(cb) | [{...}] | X | X | X | printer informatiom | ||
| [0].id | X | X | X | internal ID | |||
| [0].name | X | X | X | printer name | |||
| [0].model | X | X | X | printer model | |||
| [0].uri | X | X | printer URI | ||||
| [0].uuid | X | printer UUID | |||||
| [0].status | X | X | X | printer status (e.g. idle) | |||
| [0].local | X | X | X | is local printer | |||
| [0].default | X | X | is default printer | ||||
| [0].shared | X | X | X | is shared printer | |||
