I should probably mention that this needs to work on both Unix and Windows. Our test on Windows shows that System.Drawing.Print does not work for services. This is consistent with the MS documentation. (btw: In my opinion, a system that requires access to a graphic display in order to print, is broken) Also: our source material will be mostly pdf. We surely do not want to write a pdf to System.Drawing.Print "program". Do we? So, would you recommend looking at calling out to a configured cups server? Does cups run on windows (the server program)? We need to be able to deploy in a Windows only setting. I must admit I am quite confused about printing under Windows. This could have been clearer from my post.
