What is the Record Printer?

Sonoran CAD’s Record Printer seamlessly connects CAD records with the in-game world, enabling officers to generate and view official documents directly through an interactive in-game printer.

Records can be printed at configurable printer objects or within vehicles, shared as inventory items, and viewed entirely in-game.

In-Game Usage

Sending Files From Sonoran CAD

Sonoran CAD - Print Record Option

Printing In-Game

After selecting Print In-Game, a message will appear in-game stating "You have a new record to print. Use /printqueue to view queue".

You can print this file by using the command /print <PRINT QUEUE #> near a configured printer (printerObjects) or inside a configured vehicle (vehicleConfig).

Once printed, the PDF will be placed in your hand with a viewer shown on your in-game screen. Buttons on-screen will allow you to maximize, minimize, and exit the window.

If configured, closing the record will place it in your player inventory. Otherwise, the record will be dropped on the ground and can be picked up to be viewed by other players.

Inventory Support

Records can be stored and shared as an inventory item. The frameworks configuration item allows for inventories like ESX, QB Core, OX Inventory, and more.
