I've seen a video on how to print a "stub" for a shooter after they complete a stage but I'm wondering about printing the stage results for the whole match to post once the match is complete. Is this possible?
I like the ability to print stubs but I can't see myself sending out a tablet and micro printer with every squad for during Summer Slam so I guess a paper stub like we used at the nationals will have to do.

I would however like to be able to print the stage results for the entire match to post for the competitors to verify before the final results are announced.

DVC,
Trevor
 
We print from an iOS device to an Airprint capable printer. I'm not sure about working with Android devices, but if you can print, you should be good to go. As far as I know, you just have to print the stage results one stage at a time.

What he said.

The iOS version has a "detailed review" report you can print for each stage as well, that's basically the same as the score verification you get from WinMSS. You will still have to publish actual stage results though once all the scores are done and the hour is to start ticking.

OMFG! Just post them online silly you. Who in his right mind would want to use winmss...

When you buy printer, ask seller about Android printing capability. That is really all you have to do.
 
Sean, am aware what Dalhousie is. I was replying to mechanik's comment about export to winmss.

Even without internet, match can setup a public wifi hotspot and let competitors pull results when they like. Even if it is from a spare device not linked with the match wifi, stats can periodically pull results to it. You may remember folks at Florida Open did just that.

BTW, last time I asked Dalhousie MD to check results because we had a 13hr drive, he told me stats is too busy... so not clear if printing will help anyone there...

To be clear that was the RM, not the MD. However, I probably would have told you the same thing.

That was Trevor, not me. Please at least keep straight who you are harassing.

Please show me where I said to export to WinMSS.

The only problem with pulling stats through on a hotspot is that the competitors also get access to the overall results. Some matches like to hide the overalls and do a big reveal at the awards. I don't necessarily agree, because it's always been easy for the top guys to figure out who the match winner was, but it's much harder for some of the C and D class shooters to figure out who the class winner is (due to sheer numbers).

I won't ever go back to WinMSS. I don't need a team of people to run stats anymore and my post match review takes about 5 minutes and a lot less stress compared to an hour and diving through piles of paper. I don't think I've opened WinMSS up in 4 years.
 
With help from Chris R. I was able to figure out how to import the results to WINMSS. This means that I can print stage results to post at the match for competitors to check before announcing the final results. This means I don't need a wireless printer to link up with my master tablet. Save the WINMSS file to a micro SD card, toss it into my laptop, import it into WINMSS and click print.
Easy and will work for what I need. Thanks Chris!
 
Jesus Christ! No wonder your stats team is busy if you doing all that...

There is a direct export to pdf in the app if you really want to print something on PC.

That's what I was just about to post. I don't understand this thread - the requested feature is already present and super easy to access. Now I've never printed from Android before, maybe that part sucks, but Practiscore delivers the perfect solution.
 
Somehow people take it as given that apple airprint support is required to print from ios device, but android ones supposed to work magically. There are plenty of printers with android printing supported, even over usb using utg cable.
 
if you have wifi direct enabled printers you can print direct from practiscore to the printer via wifi. samsung printers are obviously easier to integrate, but I've been able to print to wifi enabled brother printers as well.
I use the Samsung Mobile Print app which can visually indicate if the tablet is connected to the printer. then print from practiscore view match results, from the print window you should see the printer via the samsung print service plugin - or you could save as pdf and print externally from practiscore.
