Hi,

    We are using telerik reporting for export in our project..We are facing an issue in print functionality in safari browser.The safari browser doesnt print the report and not even responds to it..We are using telerik:ReportViewer and printing the report using the below code

          var viewer = <%=rptTextBasedAdvantages.ClientID%>;
          viewer.PrintReport();

This works for IE and Mozilla firefox .Please help us in resolving in this issue.This is very critical.I searched for many solutions but ended up with no results.

Thanks
Jashvanthi

Hello Jashvanthi,

This problem is not related to Telerik Reporting, but due to problems of Safari and Adobe Reader plugin. As you can see from their plugins page (http://www.apple.com/safari/download/plugins.html), the version of Adobe reader that is offered for download is still 8 instead of 9 which has been out for almost 2 years now. What you can do is use the PrintAs("Default") method of the viewer instead, which would force the viewer not to use the Adobe PDF plugin, but the default printing capabilities of the browser.

Best wishes,
Steve

If we explicitly install the Acrobat Reader 9.
Will the print functionality start working ?
If not then How Print would work on Safari ?

Note: One of the reason for using the Telerik Reporting was, it's cross browser printing capability against SQL Reporting.

Hello Sunil,

On the contrary, you should install Acrobat Reader 8.1.2 instead. You can download it from here. I've just tested printing with it and it works as expected.
