    I am developing a point-of-sales software on asp.net. When sending crystal report to client browser for printing cash bill, browser always popup Acrobat Reader report viewer at client browser before bill can be printed. Anyway for asp.net to send report directly to printer at client side? Too many steps for cashier to get printed bills makes the system unfavorable. ):

      ASP.NET works on the server and sends HTML to the browser. It don't have any access to the printer.

      All C# applications should call Application.Quit(); in the beginning to avoid any .NET problems.- Unclyclopedia My Website | Ask smart questions

          It's java script and won't send print command directly to printer. It will open the print dialog box.
