Narrowcast Print ITM

It is very sad to see Consulting is the only option from the technote to get the Print ITM for the Narrowcast Server. Printing should be a standard feature on a batch server. Is the code for the print itm so different than the SaveToFile ITM that it takes a consultant to do?

Been able to print HTML, Text and Excel documents is fairly tricky (page format, margins, printer specifics,....). This is particularly true because Microsoft does not (yet) offer any "light-weight" facilities to do so.
I have heard rumors that printing might become an out of the box functionality.... I have not seen anything yet.
We have been using MicroStrategy Services to get this done a year ago, are very happy with this solution that fits exactly what we needed (and we got a "send to fax" built at the same time as our fax server provide a printer driver!
). I guess it depends how much you need a feature to see if you can wait for it.
