No it is not possible, you will always go through the print dialog box. The only way around this would be a custom active object that would directly bypass the print options dialog, and then you would need to support all the different printers then.
One question I will ask though, is this an intranet application where the application server is close by to the clients? If so you can get the server to print the document.

I'm building some forms that have a print option. I'm using CFDocument to dump the contents to PDF, and then the user can print from there. Of course, now they are asking if it's possible to send the PDF directly to their browser's print dialog, so they don't have to click print. I could do this easily if it was just HTML, but I want to keep it in the PDF so the formatting comes out as expected on all the different printers. Is there a way to send a PDF to their printer? I don't need to skip the print dialog, but I'm not sure how to do this with a generated PDF. I'm also open to using flashpaper, if that's easier. -- My Sites: http://www.techfeed.net/blog/ http://www.cfquickdocs.com/ http://cfformprotect.riaforge.org/ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Create robust enterprise, web RIAs.
