Configuring APEX to use BI Publisher

To use BI Publisher as your Report Server, first, access the Report Printing parameters:

Go to The following navigation in APEX with Admin credentials.
Access the Administration Services home page
Select Manage Service
Select Instance Settings, under Manage Environment Settings
Click Report Printing to focus on just the Report Printing attributes

Now, specify the following attributes:

 Oracle BI Publisher: Advanced Support
 Print Server Protocol: HTTP or HTTPS (depends on your configuration)
 Print Server Host Address: the hostname for the machine where you installed BI Publisher - e.g. myhost.mycompany.com
 Print Server Port: the port given at the end of the BI Publisher installation - e.g. 9704
 Print Server Script: /xmlpserver/convert
