If you can convert the HTML to PDF (see iText or fop) you can install acrobat reader on the server and print the pdf by running:
cmd.exe start /C acrord32 /p /h FILE.pdf -----Original Message----- From: Justin D.

What about sending the data to a locally > installed printer? I'd love to know if there is a simple way to do that. I'm in a situation where I need to run several reports (generated in HTML) and they need to be printed on whatever the default printer is on the server (Windows 2003). I've done a lot of searching, and I've seen the "redirect to lpt1 in a batch file posts" and well, that won't work for sending html files. Essentially I need a service that can run on the server that I can feed a list of URLs to and have it render them, and then send them on over to the default printer. Anyone have ideas? -Justin Scott ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.
