In order to use something else than the default printer, you need to use ReportDocument.PrintOptions property[^]

Have a look at the PrintOptions Members (CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine) | Microsoft Docs[^]. There you'll find PrintOptions.PrinterName Property[^]. You can use that to set the desired printer and before printing set the print options to the report document.

For a small implementation, have a look at Choosing a printer when printing from Crystal Reports in C#[^]

I have applied this but same situation "OneNote is opening not direct print"

Dim mySelectionFormula As String = "{Invoice_Master.Invoice_no} = '" & FrmSalebill.LblInvoiceno.Text & "'"

CashReceipt.RecordSelectionFormula = mySelectionFormula

Dim printDocument = New Printing.PrintDocument
CashReceipt.PrintOptions.PrinterName = printDocument.PrinterSettings.PrinterName
CashReceipt.PrintToPrinter(1, True, 1, 1)

Since you don't change the printer name in the PrintDocument object, you get the same default printer.

To get started, try just to set the correct printer name to your print options. Something like

CashReceipt.PrintOptions.PrinterName = "MyDesiredPrinterName"

If needed, you can list the installed printers using PrinterSettings.InstalledPrinters Property (System.Drawing.Printing) | Microsoft Docs[^]

I am saying i don't want to open these documants
(Microsoft Print to pdf)
(Microsoft XPS Document writer)
(OneNote)

Receipt directly print on printer, before printing not open receipt in these Documents?

I don't understand why you would open the document. If you set the printer to the printer name you want to use, the receipt is going to be printed on that printer. Based on the codes you have provided you always use the default printer, and if the default printer is OneNote, then the document will be printed using that.

As said, change the printer name to the one you want to use and try printing after that.

If you don't yet have the printer installed on your computer, connect to the printer first and then use the correct printer name. For information about adding a printer, see https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4015386/windows-10-install-printer[^]
