I think it is not that easy to open a "file" connection to a printer like it was in dos times (I don't know if it could be done in windows). I think you can't open an OutputStream to a printer. Well sorry enough I don't know how to send a file to a printer. Didn't have to do it till now. Sorry.

I have tried the following code to render the document to a printer using "Driver.RENDER_PCL", but it doesn´t work (i get the exception "file.io.FileNotFoundException") String printer ="////ntsrv_200//prn1"; FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(printer); Driver driver = new Driver(input.getInputSource(),out); driver.setRenderer(Driver.RENDER_PCL); driver.run(); out.close(); Thanks in advance -------------------------------------------- Gorka Echevarría Vélez BILBOMÁTICA, S.A.
