Reports 2.5 (with ToolKit 2.3) shells out whatever command you put in TK2_PRINT_STATUS whenever the user does something which implies a printer selection, e.g. Choose Printer, Print, etc. Normally this would be an lpstat command to make sure the user chooses a valid printer, but it can be anythng you want, e.g. your own printer choosing script, etc. It must return a 0 return code or Forms assumes the user picked a bad printer. When it actuially goes to print something, it shells out the contents of TK2_PRINT -- again you can put anything in there you like as well.
