Peyton, where are you expecting the reports to be printed? You do realize that it's for printing to a printer connected to the server, right, and not the client? Sorry if that's obvious and you knew it. Just like checking first that an appliance is plugged in when trying to resolve a problem with it, this seemed an important first question.
So the next thing is that without naming a printer, it will go to the default printer for the server. Do you know what that is? If you go to the server and look at the list of printers, it will tell you. Are you checking for output there? You may see 0 documents in the queue if it prints quickly. That's just a guess. /charlie -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Peyton Todd Sent: Monday, April 14, 2008 2:26 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [ACFUG Discuss] <cfprint> or some other way? I need to provide a reporting capability for the website I'm writing. My first attempt has been to write a PDF using <cfdocument>, then print it with <cfprint>. The first step was successful, and the document so produced can be loaded to a web page and printed successfuly from there, but the invocation of the <cfprint> tag produces no output - and no error message - even though the Print Log in the administrator lists all the attempted documents. It is true that it does not list them as 'Printed' but only as 'Started'. But where are they? All the entries in the Win XP Printers and Faxes window show 0 reports in the queue... I'm exploring other options, including loading the PDF to another window and letting the user print from there using the print button provided by Adobe in that window. But what could be the problem with my use of <cfprint>? I'm invoking it with the bare minimum of parameters, i.e., as <cfprint filename="MyReport.pdf" type="PDF" overwrite="yes">. Thanks for your suggestions.
