There is a utility - html2ps - that will convert html to postscript that is available for *NIX systems. Don't know if there is Windows version. In any event it would be possible to setup a remote printq to spool a file to a Linux system with this utility. It works really well.

In that case you would need a print driver for your platform (or a network printer) that understands and renders HTML on your printer. I am not aware of one - and it would be a significant effort so is there a market demand??.
Most rendered (as opposed to tag level) HTML printing is accomplished from
browsers or HTML editors I believe.
I took a quick look around the WWW and came up with this link which *may* be of help: http://www.eprintdriver.com/to_word/HTML_to_Word_Doc.html
You might be able to achieve what you want with OLE..........
Is there any reason why you want HTML in particular? Would PDF be ok?
Maybe if you let us know what you are trying to achieve we can put it into context and offer some more suggestions.

To All:
I would like to generate HTML code and have it go directly to a printer as formatted output. Normally, a user would open the HTML in a browser, ie IE, then choose <print>. I want to bypass the user step and go from the HTML to the printer directly.
The present system is UV on Dell SCO and I have another client on D3-W2K that this may apply to as well. I'm aware that there maybe a unix and/or a PC version for this solution.
