I wanted to set one of printer friendly pages to landscape, where the user do not need to set it manually.... I tried adding this code to my page, but it doesn't seem to work:
<style type="text/css">
@page { size:landscape; }
</style>
My first project is to create a printable form containing dynamic fields that is why we implemented it in asp.
My problem now is that some of the pages needs to be printed in portrait, and some in landscape orientation. I was able to do it successfully using css but it only works for IE6.0. Our client needs it to work also for IE5.5.
In my WEB application (developped in ASP), i would like to be able to print
a report with data extracted from DB.
I would like to have a button that when i click on it, i launch action like
IE - > FILE -> print.
how can i do this ?
I think that one way is to use activex but i would like to be able to not
use activex too.
Just looking for an affective and easy to use free 'Printer Friendly' script for an Intranet.

Anyone had any fun with setting page breaks with a duplex printer? Example, you have one document with several sections each with a different number of pages.
But you always want each section to start on the front side of the paper not on the back of the last page of the previous section. I have seen information on setting left/right but I have not been able to get it to work.

View Replies View RelatedIs there a way to get a printer friendly page using ASP. And when I say this I do not mean removing banner, picture etc and print the page.
The problem I face is, an ASP output is a big table with say 10-15 columns and it would not print even in landscape mode. So if I print the output from the IE browser the right side of the table gets cut. I want to know if there is an ASP code to over come this problem.

View Replies View RelatedI have a string of text that needs to be sent verbatim to a printer. The text string is generated via ASP. I can't simply print from a client mahcine on our intranet through internet explorer to the printer as the IE headers and other formatting gunk cause problems. I want to set it up to print the data server-side to the printer.
That avoids people trying to send the data to the wrong printer, etc. Of course, the printer in question is a shared printer connected to a machine in a different office (It's a tag printer, is very loud, and is essentially being put somewhere where we won't have to listen to it).
I can't find a way to get this setup to work. Does anyone have any ideas?

I need to take text from a database, turn it into a barcode from the Web and print to a Zebra Z4M barcode printer. I am stuck at two separate approaches. 1. Use ZPL II (Zebra's proprietary language to command the printer) which is executed at a DOS Prompt with "COPY BarCode.txt LPT1" Is there any way to run that from the web. Also, is there any other method of sending the information in the text file to the printer?
Use some sort of ActiveX object to compile a barcode label image, then use another ActiveX object to remove the Header/Footer and Margins from the IE printout. I have found ActiveX objects that can compile the image, but have not found anything to block out the Header/Footer and Margins.
I have a series of hyperlinks on my page which open up documents. Mainly pdfs. Can anyone tell me if it is possible to send these straight to the users printer or is this just asking too much ?
View Replies View RelatedIs there a way to accomplish installing network printers on a client machine from an asp document without client side scripting? I'm developing an app that splits out printer options based on subnet. Ideally the user should be able to click a link in their browser and the printer installs.
Currently I'm passing which printer they need through the querystring, and then emailing the user the UNC to the printer they requested. Outlook does the rest from there by mapping the printer once the user clicks the UNC. This solution works, but I've been told that it requires too much user interaction.
Is there a way to spool jobs to a printer via ASP without user intervention? I've seen the scripts that will bring up the printer dialog box, but that isn't going to help me out much unless I can automate clicking ok.
The situation is, I'm writing an application that's going to spool out hundreds of Excel documents as a form letter.
So far, I haven't been able to figure out how to get them to spool into one Excel document, so I figured I could write a script that would query the database, and then send it to the printer without user intervention.

I want my clients to be able to print straight to some of our printers over
the internet. The reason: 1) So I don't have to purchase all the
applications they have, simply to print their data. & 2) So they can have
access the printer drivers options.
Sharing a printer on the internet isn't wise, which is why I thought of
doing it via a website. And a few factors came into mind:
1) will the data be secure? maybe encrypted even?
2) who will be able to print to it?
3) can a client only print, once his deposit payment has gone through the
payment system?
Has anyone been able to make such a project work? I tried Google, and most
of the stuff refers to the HP internet-print print server, which won't work
in our scenario, since we have printers that work on LPR, their controllers
are OS/2, and the supplier won't change it just for one company.
