RemotePrintTypeId The PrintTypeID for the dispatch. The parameter is only used when using a remote print dispatcher and in this case, the argument is mandatory.  

Eksempel:  

.\Send-SmartPost.ps1 -WzUrl http://xe -FileKey 221 -Title "Test title" -RecordId 240 -RecipientAddressKeys 301 -DispatcherSequenceId 70
