Hi,
Thanks Tilman for reply.
below is the code I am using. So with this code, is it possible to direct the 
output to a specific printer(not just the default printer)


         PDDocument document = null;         try {            URL pdfFile = new URL(pdfURLStr);     
       document = PDDocument.load(pdfFile);            PrinterJob pr = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob();  
           if (this.defaultPrinter. equalsIgnoreCase("Y")) {                
document.silentPrint(pr);                //document.print(pr);            } else {                
if (pr.printDialog()) {                document.silentPrint(pr);                
//document.print(pr);                }            }              document.close();         } catch 
(Exception ex) {            write_message(ex.getMessage()) ;            
System.out.println("Error message : "+ex.getMessage());            ex.printStackTrace();  
      }

   Hi,
I use PDFBox for a long time in my system. What I do is downloading the PDF 
file through the URL and printing it. I print using the silentPrint() method. 
It goes to the default printer.
The requirement is to send the print to a pre-defined printer. Every client machine should have  the printer 
named "Receipt_Printer" added to it with  the exact name and the OS is windows. The program is to 
be modified to send the  "Receipt" pdf document to "Receipt_Printer" and other PDF's to 
default printer (with silentPrint() method).
Anyone knows how it can be sent to the "Receipt_Printer" bypassing default printer. I can 
offer the user to selectt the printer and proceed, but the requirement is to print invisibly to 
"Receipt_Printer" without offering the user to select the printer.
If anybody can help it'll be great.(or may be for commercial, we are ok)
thanks,Ranjith


Would this help?

Hi,

Your code doesn't show that you did anything specific related to the link I mentioned. That code shows how to configure the PrinterJob object to use a specific printer.

So what you should do is:
- try the code from that question
- if it doesn't work, open a new stackoverflow question and include the code that you used.

I can't help you directly, I usually don't print, and this isn't really a PDFBox question.
