[cfaussie] Silent Printing to a Named Printer
We are currently developing a ColdFusion based POS application. We would like to add the ability to silently print a plain text document to a named local client printer (docket printer). In this case the printing would not be the client's default printer. Do we have anyone on cfaussie who has been able to acheive this? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups cfaussie group.

Yes. Depending what version of ColdFusion you are going to use, there are many different options available to you. And I believe ColdFusion 8 has that support natively. -- Senior Coldfusion Developer Aegeon Pty.

[cfaussie] Re: Silent Printing to a Named Printer
Let me clarify what we are looking to do. We require a solution that silent prints a document to a Printer not visible to the Coldfusion server, and in fact only visible to the Client PC. Looking for possible, Javascript, Local java client, Local AIR application solutions? Due to the nature of this software solution, we are looking for a one time purchase or a free solution of which we are able to redistribute to our clients at no additional cost. Cheers Gareth.

[cfaussie] Re: Silent Printing to a Named Printer
Not sure that helps. Silently print from the Client, why? What is it? Surely the server served the content? From my experience, there is no such thing as what you are looking for, you could write one, but went looking for something similar once found a couple, but none were cheep and none allowed royalty free redistribution. What format is the content? Text, html, pdf?

I did it in .NET once. A client side program, ran in tray. Queried the DB every X seconds, to see if there were any invoices to be printed to this client printer, if so print them. It worked well, was real time invoicing, it required that PC to be on and have the invoice printer appropriately connected. Something in Air would work just as well.

[cfaussie] Re: Silent Printing to a Named Printer
now-a-days MS are pushing SQLServer's reporting services (which IMHO are very limiting as far as layout and I'd guess you'd get better results from CF's report builder) but you're talking about a client-server app. OK, Steve, Gareth: is the POS a web-delivered app? in other words, are you writing CF to produce DHTML? and is the reason for this is because of web-type reach and not needing to install software on the client machines? if so, then you'll have to deal with the browser (that the HTML lives in) to send print commands. and that's all you can do since your CF app won't know anything about individual printer set-ups of client machines. HOWEVER, if you're able to install software then the question becomes: do you need a DHTML/ traditional web app or can a client/server app do? (keeping in mind AIR is pretty much client/server).
