Quick Question Need Help

[Eric Wang]

Hi,

I wrote an application that generates reports. It then presents a page where
I click a button [javascript:prin t()] to open the print page. However, I
have a fixed printer and would like to know how to print to the default
printer without me clicking anything. So the page will just load up and
print. Or when I click a button. I just don't want the select printer screen
to pop up. Much similar to clicking the print button on top of the address
bar in Internet Explorer.

Thanks,
Eric

This is not ASP related. But, so you know, without the use of a client-side
ActiveX control, you cannot do what you want to do. If a Web page had the
ability to automatically print without any user intervention, this would not
be a good thing.
