If you have not yet connected with // the client software you will not receive any results from the API. // Call the getComputers, getPrinters() or getPrintJobs() method on the object: $computers = $request->getComputers(); $printers = $request->getPrinters(); $printJobs = $request->getPrintJobs(); // Hint: The return value from these methods is always an array containing 0 or more // instances of PrintNode\Computer, PrintNode\Printer or PrintNode\PrintJob depending // on the method called. You can iterate over this array however you please, for example // you might use a while or foreach loop. // Step 4: Send a PrintJob to Printnode. // PrintNode currently only accepts PDF documents. // To print something, you need to create a new instance of PrintNode\PrintJob: $printJob = new PrintNode\PrintJob(); // You can then populate this object with the information about the print-job // and add the base64-encoded content of, or the URI to your PDF. To do this use the properties // as defined on the object. // // In this example, we're going to print a a base64-encoded PDF named invoice.pdf:
