Ok,
server printing :
The csp page cannot open the printer port so you have to create a new
process on the server that will do that.
The way I would suggest is as follows :
when your user hits the print button you invoke some javascript
that calls a server method with all the parameters you need.
Inside your method you have to use the job command which
will create a new server process. That new process (a mac routine =
really)
can open the port and do the printing for you.
(Look in cache object script reference for the syntax you need=20
to pass the parameters to the job command.)
If you want to check whether it finished you have to communicate
with the method that invoked the job via the disk, ie by updating
an object or simply by having the jobbed process to set up some global =
reference
that the method keeps checking within a loop.
I dont know if you need to check whether the printing completed, if you =
do
then we may speak a bit more on that (if you did not fully understand =
the
communication via the disk).
Client printing :
Here the only way is to create an html page preformatted for your =
pre-printed
stationary. We normally use <pre> </pre> tags to honour the spaces and =
the
line feeds you need.
The onLoad of that page should say onload=3D'window.print();' so the =
printing
dialogue comes up for the user to hit enter.
Hope I helped you a bit

Hi,
You cannot print to a device from a csp page. You cannot open =
files
access the disk etc because that compromises internet
explorer security.
Imagine if an internet page you accessed could open ports
on your pc, or read/write files etc....
So printing from a csp page (same as an html for that purpose)
can only happen by isuing a javascript command window.print()
which would print the contents of the page after the user =
selects
a printer interactively
What are you trying to print ?
On which computer is that port you try to open ?
On the client pc or on the server ?
Regards
Paris

w "This is a Test Print"
close new
This routine is working fine through terminal window.but when =
i invoked this routine from the CSP page using #Server method, it throws =
the following error.
"Http request failed, unable to process hyperevents."
Could anyone please help me.
Thanks
