Re: [PHP] Re: Serveside Printing w/ PHP
What type of file are you trying to print? I'm not very familiar with Microsoft Windows but I know a little about it. Have you considered Windows Powershell? Unfortunately you would essentially have to write a powershell script and use the PHP exec functions. Windows 7 shipped with PowerShell 2.0. Hi Wayne, Thanks for this tip, I just printed a document from the PowerShell 2.0 command line; I think this might be the path to take.

Unfortunately you would essentially have to write a powershell script and use the PHP exec functions. Windows 7 shipped with PowerShell 2.0. It actually is starting to look like in order to print HTML using this method I'd have to instantiate a COM object in the shell, which I could just do directly with PHP's built-in COM stuff. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Take a look at http://www.php.net/printer -- this might be what you're looking for. Hi Ken, Thanks for trying but I've been down that road and from my understanding that PECL extension is really out of date and unsupported (the page that hosts it doesn't even have a downloadable DLL). Also the PHP pages say These functions are only available under Windows 9.x, ME, NT4 and 2000. so I highly doubt I'll have any luck with Windows 7, but you never know, maybe I should try...
