Hi Mesut,

If the printer is connected to the server machine, you can use a ReportProcessor to print reports without displaying them - PrintReport Method . The printer that will be used must be specified through the PrinterSettings properties you will pass to the PrintReport method.

In case of a desktop application:
You can use the ReportProcessor.PrintReport method. You can create a test project that raises a PrintDialog in order to log the machine's valid PrinterSettings and to use them for printing the report.

In case of a web application:
If you want to print from a printer connected to the client-machine, the operation will have to be performed manually by the user. The idea is that applications running in browser have limited access to the client machine, and the user should confirm the print operation and to specify the printers available at the client machine - Print a report directly at client-side without displaying it in a Web Viewer.


I hope this helps.

Regards,
Stef
