Hi,
That isn't a PDFBox problem. You can't print on the client from the
server unless the server has access to the 28 client printers. You can
test this by using the pdfbox-app command line utility PrintPDF without
parameters.
java -jar pdfbox-app-2.0.20.jar PrintPDF
it will print the available names. If these 28 client printers are
available (which I doubt, discuss this with the network security folks),
then they will be listed.
You can then set that printer by using
job.setPrintService(name);

Hi Tilman,
Our web application is built on JSF (XHTML) and Spring services. PDFbox code is
on the server side. When we call the load PDF and print code on the server
side, it gets the default printer of the computer's network where the server is
running. Our clients are in 28 different locations. We would like the print job
to grab client's default printer while printing. If you have an example for
that please send it across. That'll be helpful. Appreciate your help!
Best Regards,
Murugan.

I built a PDF Box POC for silent printing. When I ran it in the local machine
everything worked perfectly. The same didn't work as expected when hosted on
the network server.
Please try the non PDFBox code below. If it also "didn't work as expected" then
the cause is not related to PDFBox.
public class PDFBOX4935PrintDpi implements Printable {
public static void main(String[] args) throws PrinterException
{
new PDFBOX4935PrintDpi().doStuff();
}
PDFBOX4935PrintDpi()
{
}
void doStuff() throws PrinterException
{
PrinterJob job = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob();
job.setPrintService(PrintServiceLookup.lookupDefaultPrintService());
job.setPrintable(this);
job.print();
}
@Override
public int print(Graphics graphics, PageFormat pageFormat, int index)
{
if (index == 0)
{
Graphics2D g2d = (Graphics2D) graphics;
g2d.setFont(new Font("Courier", Font.PLAIN, 12));
g2d.setColor(Color.BLACK);
g2d.drawString("ScaleX: " + g2d.getTransform().getScaleX(),
(int) (pageFormat.getWidth() / 10), (int)
(pageFormat.getHeight() / 2));
g2d.drawString("ScaleY: " + g2d.getTransform().getScaleY(),
(int) (pageFormat.getWidth() / 10), (int)
(pageFormat.getHeight() / 2) + 25);
g2d.drawString("DPI: " +
Math.round(g2d.getTransform().getScaleX() * 72),
(int) (pageFormat.getWidth() / 10), (int)
(pageFormat.getHeight() / 2) + 60);
return Printable.PAGE_EXISTS;
}
return Printable.NO_SUCH_PAGE;
}
}
