How to print a file(could be word, pdf or infopath form) from a URL using c# code

[bin_bin1]

Hello there, I am trying to print a file(could be word, pdf or infopath form) from URL using c# code. But I always got "The parameter is incorrect" error. The following is the code that I used. WindowsImpersonationContext wic = WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Impersonate(); Process printJob = new Process(); printJob.StartInfo.FileName = @"http://testsrv/test1/Shared Documents/test.txt"; printJob.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = true; printJob.StartInfo.Verb = "print"; printJob.Start(); I am sure the URL is correct. I also tried to download the file to local drive and use the local full file path instead. In that case, it doesn't print and there is no exception either. I am really confused. Please help. My code is running in an ashx handler. I don't know whether that makes different or not. Thank you very much in advance. Bin

You do understand if this code is in an HTTP Handler it will only execute on the server correct? If you need to access SharePoint outside of the environment then you should be using the SharePoint Web Services or with 2010 the Client Object Model.
