Hi Riccardo,

Thank you for sharing your interesting scenario with us!

If you'd like to load the page in RadEditor you can use its print button to launch the Print dialog of the browser which will allow you to connect to your print servers and print the content. The print command can be also invoked using Ctrl+P.

Another option to print the whole page and for example export it as an image or PDF is to use the RadClientExportManager as shown in this demo. If you want to send the exported file to the server check out this article: Save Exported Files.

The third approach is to try the multiple ideas at StackOverflow-How can I send a file document to the printer and have it print?.

Please keep up in touch!

Stay safe!

I badly explained myself.. I need to print a series of docx and pdf documents automatically to a printer from a web page directly on the server side, do you have any other ideas?

Hi Riccardo,

Thank you for the extra detail! This is much appreciated since it cleared out your scenario.

I am afraid that we do not have such a product that can perform batch-exporting of multiple files from a web page to the server.

Please read the following forums for ideas on how you can proceed:

• Batch printing files stored on server from website
• How to do multiple pdf exports
  

For your convenience, I also logged a feature request at the Telerik Document Processing library since this is indeed a very useful feature. I also updated your Telerik points for it.
