Client Side Printing

[GJimL]

My problem is twofold and I'm not even sure what technology combo I should be using. I have a intranet application that uses ASP on the server (accessing Oracle) and HTML, Javascript on the client.

I firstly need to create a page with a list of the clients attached printers in a drop down.

Secondly, I need the ASP to print to the selected client printer i.e. the file is retrieved from the server so the call has to go back for some ASP processing before it can be printed.

I know this isn't particularly safe or probably easy for that matter. Any pointers would be gratefully appreciated.

i dont think it can be done using ASP, ASP does not even have the capability to directly access the server systems itself...

so talking about client settings....
