Printing in AX7

Hi all,

  I have some questions about printing in AX 7.  I have read the following document:

  https://ax.help.dynamics.com/en/wiki/configuring-the-document-routing-service-to-enable-network-printer-devices/

  I have a VM provided by Microsoft where the AX 7 AOS is set up.  I downloaded the Document Routing Agent on this VM, installed it and added the network printers as described in the link above.

  I then modified the hosts file on my local computer to be able to connect to the AX 7 instance from the browser OUTSIDE the VM, just like a client would do.  I then tried to print a report and was able to select the printers that I had previously configured in the VM.  I printed the document and everything worked fine.

  Now I have these questions:

i) In case a client is working at home and he wants to use a local printer at his home, how can he do that?  Does he need to install the Document Routing Agent on his machine as well and do the setup?  If yes, will other AX 7 users be then able to see his printer?  Bear in mind that the Document Routing Agent was installed on the server machine.

ii) In case the Document Routing Agent needs to be installed on the client's computer for case 1 above, what happens if the OS of the client is IOS or Android?  How can he install it?

iii) From the article, I read that you can enable and disable printers per company.  How can I hide a printer from a particular user only, irrelevant of the company he is using?

Thanks,

Anthony
