MATLAB: How to specify which printer to use when printing figures directly from the command line

MATLABprinterselect

I would like to know how to specify which printer to use when printing figures directly from the command line.

Best Answer

You can select which printer to use with the -P option of the PRINT command. The following code will print the current figure to 'myPrinter'.

>> print -PmyPrinter

To View a list of available printers, use the following command.

>> [~,printers] = findprinters

Please note that if you do not specify a printer, then print uses the system default printer.

For further details, please see the reference.

You can use the "yyaxis" and "ylim" commands to set the y-limit for both axes:

>> figure

>> yyaxis left

>> plot(1:10);

>> yyaxis right

>> plot(2:2:20);

>> f = gcf;

>> yyaxis left

>> ylim(f.Children, [0 5]);

>> yyaxis right

>> ylim(f.Children, [5 10]);

>> figure
>> hold on
>> xPos = [1 0.1];
>> yPos = [1 0.1];
>> for i = 1:numel(x)
>>     xPos = xPos + 1;
>>     for j = 1:y(i)
>>         image(xPos, yPos, im)
>>         yPos = yPos + 1;
>>     end
>>     yPos = [1 0.1];
